Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox dam The Шаблон:Nihongo is a rock-fill embankment dam on the Haneji River in Nago, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan. The purpose of the dam is flood control and water supply.

History

Planning for the dam was conducted in the late 1960s by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and construction on the dam began in 1981. Construction on the river diversion tunnels commenced in 1993 and work on the dam's body began in 1998. The body of the dam was complete in 2000 and the entire project in 2004.[1]

Design

The dam is a Шаблон:Convert tall and Шаблон:Convert long rock-fill embankment type with a structural volume of Шаблон:Convert and a crest elevation of Шаблон:Convert. The dam sits at the head of an Шаблон:Convert catchment area and its reservoir has a surface area of Шаблон:Convert. The reservoir's capacity is Шаблон:Convert while Шаблон:Convert serves as active (or "useful") capacity. The dam is equipped with an uncontrolled chute spillway.[2]

Innovations

The dam and its facilities are equipped with several innovations to improve water quality and the environment. Water in the reservoir is aerated using a dam energy-air system. Water discharged from the dam powers two small turbines which provide electricity for the operation of shallow and deep aerators. Given the height of the dam, a traditional fish ladder was not viable. An airlift system was developed which transfers fish through tubes in and out of the reservoir. The radial gate that controls the intake was split and reversed in design. This design takes advantage of tensile strength instead of compression strength which allows for a more compact and less costly design.[1][3]
