Note: Due to the sensitivity of the information provided within
this course, it has been designated as “For Official Use Only” and
is only accessible through the Homeland Security Information
Network–Critical Sectors (HSIN-CS) Dams Portal, which serves
as the primary mechanism with which dam and levee stakeholders
exchange information, both at the “For Official Use Only”
and non-sensitive levels, during steady-state operations. The portal,
managed by the Dams Sector-Specific Agency, promotes effective
information collection and dissemination among sector partners in
Federal, State, and local agencies, as well as the private sector. The
portal provides trusted and vetted public and private representatives,
including owners and operators, access to a number of resources,
including training courses.
Those who do not currently have access to the HSIN-CS Dams
Portal must contact the Dams Sector-Specific Agency within the
Office of Infrastructure Protection/U.S. Department of Homeland
Security to request and be considered for access to the training
course.
