Abstract	This paper concerns reliability centred management of river control structures. Reliability concepts are reviewed, and presented in a straightforward single parameter format appropriate for use in this context. A case study is presented that illustrates the described approach, and investigates the connection between reliability and maintenance expenditure. Correlation was found between lower reliability and both total and preventative maintenance expenditure, but little correlation with the amount of reactive maintenance expenditure.
