This coverage is made possible through a partnership between Grist and\u00a0<\/em>Interlochen Public Radio<\/em>\u00a0in northern Michigan.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Flooding across <\/span>northern Michigan last month pushed rivers to record levels, testing the limits of the state\u2019s aging dams so severely that officials in one city nearly ordered evacuations as water threatened to spill over the top of a key barrier\u2014a close call that highlights the growing risk that intensifying storms pose to similar infrastructure around the country.<\/p>\n

Nationwide, the average dam is\u00a0\u00a0and most were built for rainfall patterns that no longer reflect today\u2019s changing climate. Thousands are classified as high hazard, meaning their failure could result in the loss of life. Dam safety experts say inspections are uneven and improvements often underfunded.<\/p>\n

More than\u00a0half of Michigan\u2019s dams\u00a0are beyond their 50-year design life, and the risks became clear as snowmelt and weeks of heavy rain swelled rivers. Rising water came within 5 inches of\u00a0flowing over Cheboygan Dam\u00a0in Cheboygan, a city of about 4,700 people, on April 16. In Bellaire, officials deployed about 1,000 sandbags to\u00a0shore up a century-old dam.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis needs to be considered not the worst we can experience. This needs to be considered as typical of the future,\u201d said Richard Rood, a professor emeritus at the University of Michigan who studies climate change.<\/p>\n

There are about\u00a092,000 dams\u00a0in the United States. About 18 percent are considered high-hazard. The Association of State Dam Safety Officials estimates repairing all of these aging structures will cost more than\u00a0. In Michigan, that estimate is $1 billion.<\/p>\n

Communities facing these risks are left with difficult choices. Given the cost of repairing and upgrading dams to withstand stronger storms, removing them is often cheaper. That can reduce long-term risk and\u00a0restore rivers\u00a0to a more natural state. But it often faces resistance from property owners and communities with economies built around the reservoirs those dams created.<\/p>\n

As floodwaters recede across Michigan, local leaders, dam safety advocates, and experts are renewing calls to bolster safety regulations and deal with aging dams.<\/p>\n

Bob Stuber, executive director of the Michigan Hydro Relicensing Commission, considers the April flooding a wake-up call and believes the solution is clear: upgrades where feasible and removal where it makes sense. \u201cI think every opportunity we have to remove an aging dam, we should take advantage of it because it\u2019s not going to get better,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s just going to get worse.\u201d<\/p>\n

Officials in Traverse City came to that conclusion in 2024 and removed the Union Street Dam along the Boardman-Ottaway River as part of a\u00a0\u00a0that includes FishPass, which will allow key species to pass while blocking harmful invaders like sea lamprey. Engineers said that removal and upgrade most likely reduced flooding impacts when waters surged to near-record levels last month, falling\u00a0just short of a 500-year flood.<\/p>\n

\u201cUpstream would have been under 2 more feet of water, which would have been quite devastating,\u201d said Daniel Zielinski, a principal engineer for the Great Lakes Fishery Commission. \u201cWe actually had a really great stress test of the system. It functioned really well.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Removals are increasing across the country, according to data from\u00a0. Since 2000, more dams have come down than gone up, and that pace is accelerating as aging infrastructure, safety concerns, and environmental benefits reshape how communities weigh their value.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In northern Michigan, conservation groups like Huron Pines help dam owners make that decision. It has managed nine removals in the last 13 years and has seen growing interest after the recent flooding, said Josh Leisen, a senior project manager for the organization. Removal reconnects river ecosystems and eliminates the need for expensive upkeep of aging structures, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are costs associated with repair and there are risks associated with having a dam,\u201d Leisen said. \u201cEven if it seems to be in good condition, you get extreme weather events like we just had.\u201d<\/p>\n

Removing dams is not always straightforward. Beyond the technical challenges, many communities are reluctant to give up the lakes and waterfronts those structures create. \u201cThere\u2019s this emotional attachment to that impoundment,\u201d said Daniel Brown, a climate resilience strategist at the Michigan-based Huron River Watershed Council.<\/p>\n

In other cases, dismantling isn\u2019t practical. Some dams provide electricity or drinking water, linking them to local economies and infrastructure. Removal \u201cis not really something that\u2019s on the table because they are connected in this very practical way,\u201d Brown said.<\/p>

Still, Brown said, there are limits to how much aging structures can be adapted to a warming world. \u201c[A dam] is this very long-term, huge, expensive infrastructure that you\u2019ve put on the landscape that\u2019s going to stay there. And that is not how climate change or nature or rivers behave,\u201d Brown said.<\/p>\n

Dismantling dams, like upgrading them, can come with steep costs. The Boardman-Ottaway River project\u2014which removed three dams in\u00a0\u00a0in state history\u2014cost $25 million. Huron Pines is managing the removal of Sanback Dam in Rose City next month, at an estimated cost of $4 million.<\/p>\n

Half of the expense is funded through a grant program from the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy, or EGLE, launched in response to the\u00a02020 Edenville Dam failure\u00a0which overwhelmed the downstream Sanford Dam. The twin catastrophes forced the evacuation of more than 10,000 residents, destroyed thousands of homes, and flooded ecosystems in a disaster that investigators later found was avoidable. The $44 million state program funded several dam removals, upgrades, and engineering studies before it ended last year.<\/p>\n

Federal funding is available\u00a0through\u00a0programs administered by agencies such as\u00a0FEMA\u00a0or\u00a0U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. But those resources fall short of the estimated $165.2 billion needed to address the issue, and\u00a0some are at risk of elimination.<\/p>\n

State governments\u00a0regulate roughly 70 percent\u00a0of the dams in the United States, with the federal government regulating hydropower dams and providing funding and guidance. This means inspection standards, regulations, enforcement, and resources can vary widely.<\/p>\n

In Michigan, about 1,000 dams fall under state oversight, while 99 hydroelectric dams are overseen by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The remaining 1,500 are smaller barriers that don\u2019t fit the criteria for state regulation, according to the\u00a0Michigan Dam Inventory.<\/p>\n

Now, state officials are renewing calls for more money and stronger regulations. \u201cDam safety may be an issue that isn\u2019t partisan,\u201d said Phil Roos, director of EGLE.<\/p>\n

Proposed state legislation\u00a0would bolster inspection rules, address private ownership, update design standards, and create more funding opportunities for upgrades or removals. \u201cIt\u2019s so important to our state that we can come together, and whether it\u2019s passing the legislation that was proposed, or improving procedures, or ultimately funding,\u201d Roos said.<\/p>\n

Michigan state Senator John Damoose has expressed concern about private dam ownership since the close call at Cheboygan Dam, which is\u00a0under both state and private control. About 75 percent of the dams Michigan regulates are privately owned.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomebody made a point, \u2018Well, we can\u2019t have private companies owning these things.\u2019 I tend to believe in private ownership but they might be right,\u201d Damooose said during a Traverse City roundtable discussion on dam safety.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just a Michigan issue. Most dams in the United States are privately owned, meaning responsibility for maintenance, upkeep, and potential failure falls on individuals, not governmental agencies, according to the Association of State Dam Safety Officials.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Climate change is expected to bring more frequent and intense storms. As the world warms, the atmosphere holds more moisture, fueling more intense precipitation, according to Rood at the University of Michigan.<\/p>\n

Recent flooding \u201chas shown an incredible vulnerability,\u201d he said. \u201c[Dams] are either going to have to be removed or reengineered. Or they\u2019re going to become a set of slowly unfolding failures.\u201d<\/p>\n

Luke Trumble, chief of dam safety for Michigan, said the state is already dealing with conditions that many dams were never designed to withstand. \u201cIt\u2019s a little bit of a misconception that if we fix the dam issue, there\u2019ll be no more flooding,\u201d he said. \u201cThere\u2019s still going to be flooding on rivers whenever we get rain like this, or rain on snow.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we can do with dam safety legislation is help ensure that flooding is not made worse by a dam failure,\u201d Trumble said.<\/p>
