Шаблон:Redirect Шаблон:Infobox dam Шаблон:Infobox Chinese The Gezhouba Dam or Gezhouba Water Control Project (Шаблон:Zh) on the Yangtze River is located in the western suburbs of Yichang, in central China's Hubei province. One of the largest run-of-the-river dams,[1] it sits several kilometers upstream from downtown Yichang, just downstream of the fall of the Huangbo River into the Yangtze. Construction started on December 30, 1970 and ended on December 11, 1988. The dam has a total installed electrical capacity of Шаблон:Nowrap.[2]

After rushing out of Nanjin Pass (南津关, "South Ford Pass"), the Yangtze River slows down and widens from Шаблон:Convert to about Шаблон:Convert at the dam site. Two small islands, Gezhouba and Xiba, divided the river into three channels. There the Gezhouba Project was built.

The facility boasts a generating capacity of Шаблон:Nowrap along with three ship locks, two power stations that generate Шаблон:Nowrap of electricity annually. It has 27 gates of spillway, and a non-flowing Dam on both banks. The dam is Шаблон:Convert long with a maximum height of Шаблон:Convert. The reservoir has a total volume of Шаблон:Convert.

The navigation lock Шаблон:Nowrap on the third channel was, when built, among the 100 largest in the world. The lock chamber is Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide, with a minimum draft of Шаблон:Convert at the sill. It provides passage for 10,000 ton ships.

The construction of the Gezhouba Dam, and others on the Yangtze, is considered by scientists to be one of the main causes of the decline and extinction of the Chinese paddlefish.[3][4]
