Abstract

The 15th biennial conference of the British Dam Society (BDS) took place at the University of Warwick between 10 and 13 September 2008. In keeping with recent tradition the proceedings were officially opened by the associate dean of the university, Dr Tony Price, who welcomed us all to the campus and wished us a successful conference. In his opening address he emphasised the importance of dams and reservoirs to modern society and with the ageing stock of reservoirs in the UK he recognised the important work that is needed to maintain their safety. This theme was of course reflected in the title of the conference, ‘Ensuring reservoir safety into the future’.
