RELATING TO DAM AND RESERVOIR SAFETY.

Requires the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) to: (1) consider certain insurance coverage in conducting safety inspections relating to dam and reservoir safety; (2) to relax any restrictions and stringent standards on a dam or appurtenance upon verification of certain insurance coverage; and (3) assume that a dam, reservoir, or appurtenance is safe absent certain documents. Places the burden of proof on DLNR to find that a dam, reservoir, or appurtenance is high risk. Establishes additional requirements for DLNR and Board of Land and Natural Resources regarding the Dam and Appurtenance Improvement or Removal Grant Program.
