The authors applied differential geometric nonlinear system control theory to design the nonlinear hybrid control strategy for hydro turbine generator unit. The non-elastic water hammer effect and disturbances are considered in the modeling. In fact, the proposed control strategy is a class of state feedback linearization control law with time-varying transferred coefficients of hydraulic turbine. The feedback variables used by the proposed control law are local measurements and independent to the network parameters. The digital simulation results indicate that the proposed control strategy can improve the dynamic performance and strengthen the robustness and anti-disturbance ability of hydraulic turbine regulating system on isolated network operating condition.

Improving Earlswood Lakes in Warwickshire
Canal & River Trust is starting a £1.6 million program of improvements to the reservoirs at Earlswood.
The works, which are required to ensure the reservoirs are compliant with reservoir legislation, will require some local footpaths to be temporarily closed from 13 April, and some local roads from 19 April, the Trust said.
The lakes at Earlswood consist of three reservoirs – Terry’s Pool, Windmill Pool and Engine Pool – built in the early 19th century to supply water to the Stratford Canal.
Together they occupy 70 acres and are popular with people from across the West Midlands for walking, fishing and sailing.
The works, which are due to be completed by the beginning of November, will involve improvements to the reservoirs, the canal feeder channel and the River Blythe.
The improvement works, which will start on Monday 29 March, will include:
- Channel desilting along the canal feeder channel;
- Raising and improving the core of the main dam along Valley Road to improve its resilience during flood events;
- Installing new drainage and a collector drain within the embankment of the main dam – to help drain rainwater away from the embankment;
- Repairing erosion damage along the dams in Engine and Windmill Pools, and the toe of the dam in the River Blythe;
- Raising the footpath along the top of the River Blythe embankment at Windmill Pool to ensure a uniform level with no low spots over which water could spill;
- Fitting a trash screen to the River Blythe Culvert to improve water flow during floods and enable the removal of litter and debris;
- Creating new permanent access areas to allow maintenance and repair workers better access to the reservoir. These new access areas will be at the base of the Windmill Pool and Engine Pool dams, as well as near the River Blythe channel outlet on Windmill Pool dam;
- Strengthening the embankment between the canal feeder channel and Engine Pool.

Wivenhoe Dam (Lake Wivenhoe) is built on the Brisbane River, approximately 80 kilometres from Brisbane. It was designed by the Water Resources Commission and built in 1984. Its primary function is to provide a safe and reliable water supply to the south-east Queensland region.
- Wivenhoe Dam consists of an earth and rock embankment 2.3 kilometres long and 50 metres high, measured from the lowest foundation to the crest, with a concrete spillway section on which five steel crest gates have been installed.
- The gates measure 12 metres wide and 16.6 metres high and are among the largest of their type in the world.
- The dam has a total storage capacity of 2.6 million megalitres. At full supply level it will hold 1.15 million megalitres, or about 2000 times the daily water consumption of Brisbane.
- More than 200 separate properties were acquired to provide the 33,750 hectares of land required for the construction of the dam.
- The Brisbane Valley Highway was relocated to pass over the dam wall, while 65 kilometres of the road and a number of new bridges were required following construction of the dam.
- The construction of the dam involved the placement of around 4 million cubic metres of earth and rock fill, and around 140,000 cubic metres of concrete in the spillway section. Excavation of 2 million cubic metres of earth and rock was necessary to construct the spillway.
Wivenhoe Dam houses a pumped-storage, hydro-electric generating facility. This power station is situated between Splityard Creek Dam and Lake Wivenhoe.
During the pumping phase in the operating cycle the generator will operate as an electric motor driving the pump to lift water from Lake Wivenhoe to the upper storage of Splityard Creek Dam. When peak electricity demand occurs the flow of water is reversed, flowing from the upper to the lower storage and driving the turbine generator to generate electricity.
The pumped storage power station consists of two circular concrete silos, each of about 32 metres internal diameter. Each of the silos house a 250MW turbine generator and pump set.
The power station is unmanned and is controlled remotely from the central operating centre for the Queensland power grid system. All aspects of the operation are monitored by computers within the centre. Twin 275KV transmission lines connect the power station to the State’s grid system.

Tanzanians can expect a new hydro-electric plant to begin construction in the middle of this year.
Energy Minister Medard Kalemani announced that following the near completion of surrounding infrastructure, construction work on the 2 115MW Rufiji hydropower plant is expected to commence in June 2019.
“The project will be completed in 36 months, which means completion by 2022. The contractors have been given six months of mobilisation and they will hit the ground by June,” Kalemani says.
Tanzania’s budget proposal unveiled in May 2018 earmarked USD307-million for the project, which will include the construction of a roller compacted concrete dam on the Rufiji river.
The 134-metre dam will have a storage capacity of 34 million cubic metres of water.


The impeller of the centrifugal pump is to transfer the energy of the original motivation through centrifugal force to the liquid in the pump, which increases the speed and pressure of the liquid. This causes the pump to drain out and the liquid in the inlet pipe is sucked in. The materials used in impeller are: cast iron HT20~ 40, HT25~ 47, cast steel ZG15, ZG25, cast copper ZGCuR, stainless steel 1Cr13, 2Cr13, 1Cr18Ni9Ti, and aluminum cast iron.
Closed impeller of centrifugal pump consists of wheel disk, blade and front and rear cover plate. This impeller is good for the flow of gas, and the wheel cover is equipped with a gas seal to reduce the leakage loss, so the efficiency is higher than the previous two rounds. In addition, the impeller and the side clearance of the enclosure are not as strict as the semi-open impeller, which can be properly enlarged and easy to remove and assemble when overhauling.
The closed impeller centrifugal pump is more efficient but difficult to manufacture. It is widely used in pipeline pumps. It is suitable for conveying water, solution and other non-granulated clean liquids. The closed impeller with a cover plate can improve the flow of liquid and improve the efficiency of the pump. It is suitable for conveying clear liquid, and the general centrifugal cleaning water pump adopts this kind. But the impeller clearance is narrow to go through impurities, especially the impeller of small centrifugal pump, it requires that the medium is clear and viscosity cannot be large, and it cannot contain fibrous material.


Hydroelectric Green Energy
Available Stock: 2,617 tCO2e
The proposed Hydro Power Project at Tangnu aims to generate hydroelectric power using the energy from the flowing rivers, Supin and Sundru. It plans to have three units, each with a capacity of 2.0 megawatts (MW). The main goal is to utilize the natural potential energy of the rivers to produce electricity.
The generated electricity will be supplied to the Himachal Pradesh State Electricity Board (HPSEB), which is a state-owned power utility company. By supplying electricity to the grid, the project will replace the need for electricity that would otherwise be generated by fossil fuel-fired power plants dominating the grid. This will result in the displacement of CO2 emissions that would have been produced by those fossil fuel power plants.
Since the project is a new and Greenfield project, the baseline scenario refers to the situation that existed before the project started. In this case, it means the electricity generated through the hydro power project replaces the electricity that would have been produced by fossil fuel plants.
The project is scheduled to be operational and commissioned by December 31st, 2013. Once operational, it will contribute to cleaner and more sustainable energy generation by using the renewable power of flowing rivers.


Engaged by MAB Corporation, DCE carried out the engineering design and project management for the Steele Creek Rehabilitation and Retarding Basin at Keilor Park Drive in Tullamarine.
The Steele Creek Waterway improvement works include the re-alignment and rehabilitation of Steele Creek through Brimbank City Council's Botanic Gardens and the construction of a Melbourne Water retarding basin in Keilor Park which had to meet the new ANCOLD requirements.
Part of the works also included twin 3.0 x 2.4m culverts under Staduim Drive with a large concrete over flow outlet structure to cater for high flows and a low flow pipe outlet for minor flows. Steele Creek is a major Melbourne Water drainage waterway and DCE completed major flood modelling work to analyse and design this waterway to convey large developed flows and controlling flows through Keilor Park Drive culverts by constructing a large retarding basin within Botanical Garden area.
The works form part of the Translink Business Park development which DCE has been involved with since its inception. Many difficult engineering constraints have been overcome by DCE in order to make Translink one of Melbourne's premier developments.


Hochtief awarded Tyrol tunnel job
By Sarah McCay30 July 2014
Hochtief has been awarded a €132 million contract to build the Triebwasserweg Maria Stein tunnel at the Gemeinschaftkraftwerk Inn hydroelectric power station in the Tyrol, Austria.
Hochtief will be responsible for driving a 22.6km long, 6.5m diameter pressure tunnel, which will run underground from the Ovella reservoir to the powerhouse in Prutz. Hochtief will use two hard rock double-shield tunnel boring machines.
The tunnel will be lined with prefabricated concrete lining segments. These reinforced concrete elements will be produced locally in a field factory. The tunnel build is the biggest and most significant of the three construction lots of the hydroelectric power station on the River Inn. The tunnel will be completed in mid-2018.
Wilfried Rammler, general manager of Hochtief Infrastructure, said, "We are happy to have won another large-scale contract in the Austrian market. This underscores our competence in the construction of sustainable energy infrastructure in Europe."
Once operational, the Gemeinschaftkraftwerk Inn hydroelectric power station will generate power for more than 100,000 households.


“The power plant will have two generators, each capable of producing 7 megawatts, hence the total capacity of the plant is 14 megawatts,” he said.
“It is expected to generate up to 90 million units of electricity for the power grid per year and reduce CO2 emissions of 45,833 tonnes annually.”
Thidet explained that the plant would use water released by the Pha Juk dam to generate electricity, which is an efficient use of water resources while not affecting the surrounding communities, which will still be able to use water from the dam for consumption and agriculture.
“Furthermore, hydropower is a clean, sustainable energy and is one of the cheapest of renewable energies,” he said.
On Wednesday, Egat opened a hydropower plant at Klong Tron dam in Uttaradit’s Nam Pad district for commercial use. The plant has a capacity of 2.5 megawatts and will produce 11.8 million units of electricity for the power grid.
So far Egat has built nine hydropower plants at dams nationwide – Chao Phraya, Mae Klong, Naresuan, Pasak Jolasid, Khun Dan Prakan Chon, Kwai Noi Bumrung Dan, Kiew Kho Ma, Chulabhorn and Klong Tron. They have a combined capacity of 87.95 megawatts.
Egat is also planning to build a floating solar power plant at selected dams, with a pilot project at Sirindhorn Dam in Ubon Ratchathani. It is expected to be completed by mid-2022 and will generate 45 megawatts of electricity.

CEB starts Kukule Ganga construction
Sri Lanka`s state-owned electricity monopoly, the Ceylon Electricity Board, has started construction on the $215m, 80 MW Kukule Ganga hydropower project. The project, which will be situated in the south of the Kukule river, will generate an estimated annual average of 317 GWh of power.
The project is being financed mainly by Japan`s Overseas Economic Cooperation Fund, which will provide $195m. The balance will be borne by the CEB. The construction contract for the project has been awarded to AB Skanska of Sweden, while the contract for building diversion facilities was won by a joint venture of Kajima, Kumugai and Hazma Corp. of Japan.
The project is due to be completed by the end of 2002. The reservoir will inundate 120 hectares, affecting 50 families. The powerhouse will be located 200 m below ground level.
The repair of leaks to the dam of the Samanalawewa reservoir in Sri Lanka allowed the CEB to activate the plant`s third 60 MW unit in June to help meet peak demand. The reservoir developed leaks after commissioning in 1992, resulting in a drop in generation of 133 GWh of power annually.


Rehabilitation work at Rough River dam is officially underway.
According to the United States Corps of Engineers (USACE), the first phase of the Rough River Dam remediation project - which involves the relocation of State Highway 79 to the upstream slope of the dam and the construction of a new, temporary road - has begun.
The construction of a new temporary road and the relocation of Highway 79 are meant to ensure uninterrupted traffic while repairs to the dam are taking place.
So far, the speed limit approaching the construction zone has been reduced to 45 mph, and on Monday, July 28, dump trucks began hauling rock onto the dam.
The dam itself is not currently at risk; however, research by the USACE determined that, over time, the karst foundations on which the dam was built could pose the risk of eroding the bed rock.
After the relocation of Highway 79, which is the only portion of the project expected to take place in 2014, work will begin to use grout to fill natural crevices that have formed in the bed rock under the Rough River dam. This work is expected to begin in 2015 and will prevent water from moving under the dam between the lake and the tailwater area.
If the grout will suffice, the project will be completed after its installation; if not, a cut-off wall will be installed to permanently remedy the issue.
This project is estimated to take three to five years to complete, after which time, Highway 79 will be restored to its original position. The temporary highway is planned to be repurposed as a walking trail for dam visitors.

adult, Army Corps of Engineers, channel, channel modification, Columbia River, design, fish passage, salmonids, Umatilla River, upstream
This report summarizes the construction work that was accomplished during the period of June to September 1986 to complete the channel modifications for fish passage in the lower Umatilla River below Threemile Dam. Modifications to the channel were initially designed and constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District (CORPS) under Interagency Agreement No. DE-A179-84-BP15807, Project No. 83-434 dated February 1, 1984. Abnormally high riverflows and other design problems resulted in several construction deficiencies. A review team consisting of representatives of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), Umatilla Insian Tribe, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR), CORPS, and Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) conducted a field inspection of the modified channel during July 1985. The team identified additional work items necessary to complete the fish passage from the Columbia River to Threemile Dam. The BPA funded the CORPS to complete the design and construction of the project under Interagency Agreement No. DE-A179-86-BP61383, Project 84-343 dated January 23, 1986. The CORPS prepared plans and specifications for completion and awarded a construction contract to Coyote Corporation Contractors and Engineers, Spokane, Washington. Notice to Proceed with the work was given on June 9, 1986. Construction work included rock excavation from existing weirs, concrete weir construction where needed, miscellaneous concrete placement to prevent fish access to dead-end side channels, and construction of two jump pools. A modification to the contract deleted the two jump pools and provided additional channel improvement. The contract was completed on September 5, 1986. The modified channel will now allow the upstream movement of adult anadromous salmonids anticipated in mid-September 1986.

Canning Dam Western Australia
We manufactured and installed the worlds largest ground anchors.
The Canning Dam in WA required strengthening work to meet revised design and earthquake loadings. The work involved removing the top 3.8m of the existing dam wall and drilling down through the 70m high concrete dam plus up to a further 70m into the bedrock below. The top section of the wall was then rebuilt using reinforced concrete.
Across the 466m crest, 166 permanent, re-stressable ground anchors totalling nearly 13km in length were installed through the formed and drilled holes from the crest to be stressed and grouted deep into the foundation rock.

Sustainable energy for our future.
The GEN Group seeks to build a secure, low-carbon and competitive energy future for Slovenia. We are working towards expanding the use of clean electricity generated locally, which has the potential to replace over time the electricity generated from imported fossil sources.
Strategic development schemes and investments that will make a vital contribution towards this end have been put in place, focusing on:
- the continuation of the construction of hydroelectric power plants on the lower course of the River Sava,
- the continuation of the technological modernization of NEK,
- the replacement of gas turbine units at TEB,
- the preparations for the construction of hydroelectric power plants on the middle course of the River Sava, and
- the planning and preparations for the construction of a second nuclear reactor unit of Krško Nuclear Power Plant (JEK 2).


laminar and turbulent flow in two regions
I want to model two channels which turbulent flow of water
goes through one channel and laminar flow goes through another one.
when i import one channel into fluent as fluid domain
the solution will converge for laminar and turbulent flow separately.
but when i import two channels as two volumes simultaneously to fluent and choose viscous model for turbulent and laminar zone from Bc's panel
for each channel respectively, solution will diverge.can any one tell me why?

In April 2011, Statkraft applied for a license for the construction of Vigdøla power plant in the municipality of Luster in Sogn og Fjordane, Norway. Vigdøla power plant will utilise a gross head (vertical drop) of approximately 600 meter in Vigdøla, a tributary of the Jostedøla river, on the eastern side of Jostedalen.
Vigdøla power plant is a small hydropower project on the east side of Jostedalen. The power station is planned to be built about 1200 meters inside the mountain, close to the existing Jostedal power station.
Jostedal power station is located at Myklemyr, about 15 km from the municipal center Gaupne.
The new power plant will have a drop of about 600 meters from the intake at Skitnamyri in Vigdøla, close to the road. The plan is to establish a new tunnel and a new pressure shaft from the intake at Skitnamyri, down to the new power station. Just next to the existing Jostedal power station a new station hall will be created for the new power plant.
This solution makes it possible to utilize the existing head race tunnel into Jostedal power station, tailrace channel to the Gaupne fjord and power lines out of Jostedal power station. The excavated materials from the tunnel are intended placed close to the existing rock dump just east of Jostedøla. This reduces interference with nature as much as possible.
Focus on the environment
Statkraft wants to construct the Vigdøla project because it can be done in an environmentally acceptable manner and at a reasonable cost. Jostedalen and Vigdalen have large and distinctive natural qualities that Statkraft tries to take into account when planning the construction road and intake, disposal of rock materials from underground operations as well as other technical interventions. The project also includes plans for a minimum water flow in the river in order to preserve the original landscape in the best way possible.

The construction of 37 MW Upper Myagdi Hydropower Project in Dhauragiri Gaonpalika-4 Naura of Myagdi is set to begin. Hydro Empire Pvt. Ltd. is constructing the project. It has started construction of access road after completing a detailed study. Chairman of Hydro Empire, Jit Bahadur Gharti, informed that the work of preparing revised Environmental Test (EIA) report to increase the capacity of the project from 20 MW to 37 MW has reached the final stage. The PPA and the investment agreement will be signed after the EIA of the added capacity is passed.
The project is constructing an access road of about 14 kilometers. A project dam has been proposed on the right bank of Myagdi River, 130 meters below the confluence of Sinkos and Myagdi rivers. On the left bank of the Myagdi River, an underground sand-thawing pond and a headrace tunnel have been proposed.
Electricity will be generated by pouring water from a 3,553.33 meter long tunnel into the power house from a 300.88 meter high head. A 797.96 meter long penstock pipe will be connected from the outlet to the power house. The generated electricity will be connected to the central grid from Dandakhet substation through 10 km long transmission line. The project is estimated to cost Rs. 7.1 billion.
Four more projects have been given permission by the Department of Electricity Development to generate electricity from the Myagdi River flowing through the foothills of Dhaulagiri Himal. Permission has been sought for the construction of Upper Myagdi I with a capacity of 53.5 MW, Mudikhola with a capacity of 14.70 MW and Myagdikhola Hydropower Project with a capacity of 57.30 MW.

Dniester Pumped Storage Power Station
|Dniester Pumped Storage Power Station|
|Pumped-storage power station|
|Upper reservoir||Dniester Upper|
|Upper res. capacity||38,800,000 m3 (31,456 acre·ft)|
|Lower reservoir||Dniester HPP-I Dam|
|Lower res. capacity||70,000,000 m3 (56,750 acre·ft)|
|Hydraulic head||38.7 m (127 ft)|
|Generating units||7 x 324 MW reversible Francis turbines|
|Nameplate capacity||972 MW|
The Dniester Pumped Storage Power Station is a pumped storage hydroelectric scheme that uses the Dniester River 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) northeast of Sokyriany in Chernivtsi Oblast, Ukraine. Currently, 3 of 7 324 megawatts (434,000 hp) generators are operational and when complete in 2017, the power station will have an installed capacity of 2,268 megawatts (3,041,000 hp).
As part of the Dniester Hydro Power Complex, the pumped storage power station (PSP) was planned in the 1970s along with two dams (Dniester I & II) and a nuclear power plant. In 1983, Dniester II, a dam which creates the PSP's lower reservoir, was completed. The PSP was approved by 1988 and construction began that same year. Three years later in 1991 though, construction was suspended due to a funding fallout from the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The project was re-approved in 1993 and construction commenced again in 2001. Project costs increased due to the poor state of the existing facilities which were not maintained while the project was suspended. On December 22, 2009, the PSP's first generator was commissioned. The second generator was commissioned in December 2013. The third generator was commissioned on 21 December 2015.
Ukraine's problems funding the project have been compounded by controversy surrounding the project's transparency and impacts on the environment and water flow to Moldova downstream. Ukraine had sought funding from the World Bank who, in 2007, only funded US$29.6 million towards the PSP's electrical transmission system. Industry experts believe Ukraine will be able to complete the project independently. The power station is expected to be fully operational in 2017.
Design and operation
The power station begins operation by using reversible turbines to pump water, during low energy demand periods, from the lower reservoir which is created by the Dniester HPP-II Dam, located 7.5 kilometres (5 mi) to the southeast near the border with Moldova at liver"-shaped embankment dam. The upper reservoir has a 38,800,000 m3 (31,456 acre·ft) storage capacity. During periods of high energy demand, water is released from the upper reservoir back to the power station for generation. This process is routinely repeated and helps balance loads. The difference in the two reservoirs affords a hydraulic head of 135 m (443 ft).. The lower reservoir has a storage capacity of 70,000,000 m3 (56,750 acre·ft). Water pumped from this reservoir is placed in the upper reservoir which is formed by a 360° "
While only 3 are currently operational, the power station will contain 7 324 MW reversible Francis turbine generators. Its installed capacity will be 2,268 MW when generating and during pumping, the power station will consume a maximum of 2,947 MW. Regulating flows into the lower reservoir is the Dniester HPP-I Dam which is located upstream, 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) north of the power plant at . HPP-I has its own power plant with an installed capacity of 702 MW and a storage capacity of 3,000,000,000 m3 (2,432,140 acre·ft). HPP-II has an installed capacity of 40.8 MW.

The perennial flooding along River Nyando could end following plans to restart construction of Sh40 billion Koru-Soin Dam in Kisumu County.
The construction, which was initiated in the 1970s, had stalled following a misunderstanding between the locals and the implementers of the project.
But the National Water Harvesting and Storage Authority has advertised a tender for the construction of the dam, signalling hope.
According to the advert signed by the authority’s acting CEO Sharon Obonyo, bidders are expected to present their tender documents before July 20.
The dam, to be constructed on the upstream of River Nyando at the border of Kisumu and Nandi counties, will provide 72, 000 cubic metres of water for domestic and commercial use.
The multipurpose dam will also generate 2.5 Mega Watts of hydropower, which will boost the national grid.
According to the advertisement, the project will be implemented in two phases, with the construction work placed on an open international tender, while the supervision of the works reserved for Kenyan companies.
If actualised, the project will offer a lasting solution to the perennial flooding in the Nyando basin.
Attempts to kickstart the project have been blocked by politicians and protests from locals.

Nature of the Distributed of the Bed Sediment within Mosul Dam Reservoir, Iraq
2013 (English)Conference paper, Presentation (Refereed)
Mosul Dam is one of the biggest hydraulic structures in Iraq. It was constructed in 1986 on the Tigris River in the north of Iraq. The initial storage capacity and water surface area of its reservoir reaches 11.11 km3 and 380 km2 respectively at the maximum operation level 330 m a.s.l. The dam was operated in 1986. A total of 56 samples were collected from the bottom of Mosul reservoir covering most of the reservoir area. The results of the analysis of these samples revealed that they were composed of gravel (3.8%), sand (15%), silt (55.5%) and clay (25.7%). The distribution of these sediments indicates that the silt portion represents the highest followed by clay and then sand. However, sand percentages are the highest in the northern zone of the reservoir where the River Tigris enters the reservoir and decreases gradually toward the dam site. In the meantime, silt percentage decreases toward the dam site while the finer fraction (i.e. clay) increases.

The New Orleans Engineer District recently awarded a $4.4 million contract to address seepage remediation for a portion of the levee in Iberville Parish, La., as part of the overall Mississippi River Levees (MRL) construction project.
The contract, awarded to Circle LLC, consists of installing sheet pile cutoff wall on the east bank of the river in Iberville Parish, La. Construction for the MRL Plaquemines Point Seepage project is expected to include installation of sheet piles, clearing and grubbing, silt fencing, erosion control, fertilizing, seeding and mulching.
During construction, the all-weather access road on the crown surface will remain closed. Once seepage remediation is addressed, the road is slated to be replaced. The estimated completion is spring 2025.
The MRL construction project is a part of the larger Mississippi River and Tributaries project. The system is intended to provide flood risk reduction to the vast expanse of the developed alluvial valley from periodic overflows of the Mississippi River. The mainstem levee system begins at the head of the alluvial valley at Cape Girardeau, Mo., and continues to Venice, La., approximately 10 miles above Head of Passes near the Gulf of Mexico.


Pine Lake Resort, Carnforth
LFP have completed the installation of a culvert system Pine Lake Resort, Carnforth.
LFP implemented a new culvert system to reduce the risk and impact of flooding to the surrounding lodges. The project included a replacement of a hydraulically inadequate culvert with a box culvert including new upstream and downstream headwalls, each with protective handrails. The upstream channel was reprofiled and retained with Flex MSE bagwall construction. The downstream link channel was armoured with rock revetment at its bed. Within this project, LFP also maintained water levels of the lake through pumping, diverted HV power cabling, reinstated a tarmac road and restored areas of grassland.
LFP maintained site access throughout the project, alongside minimising noise for residents and holiday guests. Ecology was also a focus of the project to ensure existing habitats weren’t effected by the works.


A contract of Rs 14 crores was given to install water drains and a pumping system last year
Waterlogged Gandhi Market, Kings circle, due to heavy rain during monsoon last year
After an unsuccessful attempt to solve the flood issue at Gandhi Market, the BMC has now spent another Rs 7 crore to increase the capacity of the water drainage system. Last year, before the monsoon, a contract of Rs 14 crores was given to install water drains and a pumping system.
As per the earlier proposal, a 900 mm drainage line was to be installed underground, however, the administration realised that it was not feasible due to the constant flow of vehicles. The area was waterlogged last monsoon despite the new pumping station which has a capacity to pump out 2.33 lakh litre of floodwater per minute.
Later, the administration had come up with a new plan which included an RCC open drain with grating on both sides of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Road and connecting the drainage line at the King’s Circle railway station to Gandhi Market pumping station. “The additional work attracted Rs 7.25 crore to the original cost of Rs 14.53 crore. The overall cost of the project is Rs 21.78 crore,” said an official from the stormwater drainage department.


Norvea’s nozzle check valves are ideal for applications where the reverse flow of a liquid has to be avoided. These valves are suitable for all kinds of liquid and gaseous fluids and are fire-safe by design. Typical applications include pipelines, steel mills, chemical plants, water works, pumping stations, water distribution plants, compressor stations, to name but a few. Check out Noreva’s website for more information at www.noreva.de/english/.
Noreva’s NRV-B owes its distinctiveness to the design of the ring-shaped valve disc, which is guided resistant-free by helical springs and radial guides, insuring a water hammer free closure of the valve, despite rapid velocity changes. This design also results in very low pressure losses due to two ring-shaped annular flow passes.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Dredge Hurley performed maintenance work outside of New Madrid port in New Madrid Missouri. Prior to that the Memphis District dredge was working at the Olmstead Lock and Dam project clearing sediment from the winter months at the project site which it has done for the last several years. The dustpan Dredge Hurley works up and down the Mississippi River along with the Corps’ Dredge Potter to remove shoals and keep navigation open.
Originally commissioned in 1993 the dredge was lengthened in 2010 from 305 to 353 feet. Dredge Hurley replaced the 1933-built Dredge Burgess and soon after it was operation the Corps identified a need for a vessel to dredge up to 75 feet. The project was authorized in 1997.
The 353-foot long 108-foot wide dustpan dredge uses two 1500 hp. motors to pump up to 5000 cubic yards of sediment from the river bottom each hour. The Dredge Hurley has a steel frame ladder that supports the dustpan suction head. High velocity water jets on the suction head of the dustpan dredge loosen the material on the river bottom. The dredge’s floating pipe-line carries material outside the navigation channel via a 1200-foot pipeline.

The country’s major water reservoir, Tarbela Dam, on Saturday attained its maximum capacity of holding water, indicating that there will be enough water available for irrigation of crops in the coming Rabi (winter) season that starts in October with major crops like wheat, barley, lentil, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, etc.
The filling of the dam to its maximum level would also help generate maximum low-cost electricity, thus curtailing price pressure on power consumers. Although, its filling is encouraging for the agriculture sector, at the same time, the high fertiliser prices, especially of DAP, were a serious challenge to farmers as this major input price has doubled in a year and is being sold at over Rs14,500/bag.
The dam has filled to its maximum storage level of 1,550 feet above the main sea level, whereas 5.827 million-acre feet (MAF) of water has been stored in the reservoir. But, ironically, the water-holding capacity of the dam is year-on-year reducing due to silting and another danger is the presence of a delta in the dam, which is fast-moving towards the main infrastructure. The delta currently present at a distance of four miles from the main structure is posing a serious threat and can choke down the irrigation and power generation system. The delta is moving at a speed of a quarter of a mile each year, top officials of the water resources ministry told the Senate Standing Committee on Water Resources a few days back.
Another negative aspect of the Tarbela Dam is that its water-holding capacity has also reduced. In August 2018, when the dam filled to its maximum level of 1,550 feet, its water storage was 6.047 MAF and now in August 2022, its capacity has reduced to 5.827 MAF. In four years, its water-holding capacity reduced by 0.22 MAF.
The Tarbela Dam is considered to be an iconic project for its hydel power and contribution to agriculture. It has been playing its role in the development of Pakistan since 1974 by releasing the stored water for agriculture, mitigating floods and providing low-cost hydel electricity to the national grid. The Tarbela reservoir has a live water storage capacity of 5.826 MAF. Besides, the Tarbela Dam is the biggest electricity generation facility in Pakistan with an installed capacity of 4,888 megawatts (MW), which will increase to 6,418 MW after the completion of the Tarbela 5th Extension Hydropower Project.
The Mangla Dam’s minimum operating level is 1,050 feet while the maximum level is 1,242 feet, and the present level is 1,175.4 feet with a total storage of 2.938 MAF. Chashma’s minimum operating level is 638.15 feet, and the maximum conservation level is 649 feet.
