Sec. 12.41  Monitoring instruments.

    (a) In designing a project, a licensee must make adequate provision 
for installing and maintaining appropriate monitoring instrumentation 
whenever any physical condition that might affect the stability of a 
project structure has been discovered or is anticipated. The 
instrumentation must be satisfactory to the Regional Engineer and may 
include, for example, instruments to monitor movement of joints, 
foundation or embankment deformation, seismic effects, hydrostatic pore 
pressures, structural cracking, or internal stresses on the structure.
    (b) If an applicant or licensee discovers any condition affecting 
the safety of the project or project works during the course of 
construction or operation, the applicant or licensee must install and 
maintain any monitoring devices and instruments that may be required by 
the Regional Engineer or other authorized Commission representative to 
monitor that condition.
