RMC-RFA
 
RMC-BestFit
 
RMC-TotalRisk
 
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Risk Management Center (RMC) contracted development of a toolbox to help dam and levee safety risk assessors assess the likelihood of breach due to surface erosion on the waterside of a levee due to flow parallel to the embankment.   RMC-RFA (Risk Management Center - Reservoir Frequency Analysis) software facilitates hydrologic hazard assessments within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Dam Safety Program.   RMC-BestFit is a menu-driven software package, which performs distribution fitting and Bayesian estimation from a choice of thirteen probability distributions.  

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Risk Management Center (RMC) is developing event tree software that will be specific to dams and levees. The beta version is expected to be released in March 2021.
