Can a state agency or Dept. operate ethically?

Since built the Oroville Dam has never had a comprehensive review of its design or construction. An independent review determined
that the concrete was not up to standards and the design had serious flaws for the spillway and this would have not been detected by physical inspections as important as those are.
The owners of the dam are said to be ethically responsible.
The independent team wrote that regulators are important in managing dam safety, but they do not have all the resources nor the primary responsibility to do so.
"That responsibility, both ethically and legally, rests with dam owners," the report says.
The California Department of Water Resources owns the Oroville Dam.
