### sec.354 Deciding safety conditions
When the chief executive has received the information requested in a notice under section 353 (2) , the chief executive must assess the information and decide the safety conditions for the dam.
In deciding the safety conditions for the dam, the chief executive must have regard to the guidelines, if any, made by the chief executive for applying safety conditions to a referable dam.
The chief executive must decide the safety conditions for the dam—
within 40 business days after the chief executive receives the information requested; or
if the owner of the dam, by written agreement, extends the period—within the extended period.
The safety conditions must be relevant to, but not an unreasonable imposition on, the dam or be reasonably required for the dam.
