Redaktion: Icold, Cigb

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The topic of dam decommissioning or dam removal has come up with increasing frequency in the past decade. The reason for considering dam removal may be dam safety concerns, high repair costs, high operation and maintenance costs, or impacts on fish passage and water quality. This ICOLD Bulletin provides owners of dams, dam technicians and other professionals with the information needed to guide decision making when considering dam dismantling as a project alternative.

Autorenporträt

the Commission Internationale des Grands Barrages (CIGB) / International Commission on Large Dams (ICOLD) is a non-governmental International Organization which provides a forum for the exchange of knowledge and experience in dam engineering. The Organization leads the profession in ensuring that dams are built safely, efficiently, economically, and without detrimental effects on the environment. Its original aim was to encourage advances in the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of large dams and their associated civil works, by collecting and disseminating relevant information and by studying related technical questions. Since the late sixties, focus was put on subjects of current concern such as dam safety, monitoring of performance, reanalysis of older dams and spillways, effects of ageing and environmental impact. More recently, new subjects include cost studies at the planning and construction stages, harnessing international rivers, information for the public at large, and financing.
