The assignment included field reconnaissance and visits with the director of dams, Salim Akram, and a desk review of documentation at the offices of the Ministry of Environment and Water. Whilst Wadi Shawkah was full, Wadi Tawiyaeen was empty and over two metres of accumulated sediment was being removed from the reservoir basin. Certificates of dam safety were provided on completion of the report and inspection. The report summarised the findings of the inspection and included recommendations for operation, maintenance, supervision and monitoring of the reservoir that should be carried into effect as soon as is practicable.

The team members also spoke at a conference organised by the client in the Municipality of El Ain, delivering papers on flood estimation for wadi catchments and the dams in UAE, and international practice in the monitoring and supervision of dam safety.
