Tailings Dam Safety / Sécurité des Barrages de Stériles

About this book

ICOLD Bulletin 194, Tailings Dam Safety, aims to assist the international community to further develop and adopt safe practices for tailings dam planning, design, construction, operation, and closure with a focus on the technical aspects that are mentioned but not fully developed in other recent National and Industry Guidelines and Standards. Governance and human aspects have also been touched on with appropriate references where other guidance documents are considered more comprehensive.

The Bulletin consolidates key information from these Guidelines and Standards together with information from various previous ICOLD Bulletins that address specific aspects of the topic to provide a comprehensive overview of "what makes a tailings dam safe." Comprehensive references are provided to assist users to access more detailed information where relevant.

In preparing this bulletin, ICOLD has strived to consolidate "leading international practice" for tailings dams, with a focus on technical guidance.

Le sous-comité de la CIGB sur les stériles a préparé le présent bulletin pour aider la communauté internationale à améliorer les pratiques en matière de sécurité lors des phases de planification, de conception, de construction, d'exploitation et de fermeture des installations, en détaillant en particulier les aspects techniques qui ont été mentionnés, sans avoir été complètement développés, dans d'autres ouvrages directeurs et normatifs récemment publiés par des organismes gouvernementaux et industriels. Les aspects liés à la gouvernance et aux personnes ont également été abordés en offrant les références appropriées lorsque d'autres documents directeurs ont été jugés plus complets sur le sujet.

Le présent bulletin rassemble les principaux renseignements issus de ces lignes directrices et de ces normes ainsi que l'information provenant des divers bulletins antérieurs de la CIGB qui traitent d'aspects spécifiques du sujet afin de parvenir à une description complète de « ce qui assure la sécurité d'un barrage de stériles ». Des articles approfondis sont par ailleurs cités en référence pour aider le lecteur à accéder, le cas échéant, à des renseignements plus détaillés.

En préparant ce bulletin, la CIGB s'est efforcée de faire la synthèse des « meilleures pratiques internationales » mises en œuvre pour les barrages de stériles, et privilégiant les recommandations techniques.
