This document discusses reservoir sedimentation, including its causes and mitigation strategies. It notes that geological investigation of the land, hydrology, hydrogeology, and geology are essential for planning dams and reservoirs. Several methods to control sedimentation are described, such as reducing sediment inflow, routing sediments, sediment removal, providing large storage volumes, and sediment placement. Afforestation, check dams, and operating reservoirs to discharge sediment during floods while retaining water during dry seasons can also help address the problem. Desilting of reservoirs in India needs to be prioritized, as silt deposits have reduced water storage capacity by 30-40% in major dams.

Raising, widening & strengthening with protection to scoured bank of Bedpur-K...Satyajit Behera
Embankment failure and riverbank erosion are common problem in Odisha. Almost every year earthen embankments and riverbanks are facing problems like erosion, breaching or retirements. Among many reasons the major causes are considered due to the use of geotechnical unstable materials, improper method of construction, seepage and sliding.
How to Split Bills in the Odoo 17 POS ModuleCeline George
Bills have a main role in point of sale procedure. It will help to track sales, handling payments and giving receipts to customers. Bill splitting also has an important role in POS. For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

3. The geologic conditions that exist at and in the vicinity of
every proposed dam and reservoir should be known and
understood by those responsible for its planning and design.
The principal elements that must be considered are
Geomorphology
Hydrology
Hydrogeology
Geology
4. Geomorphology
In the geological sense, geomorphology is the configuration of
the land surface, and it includes the location, size, and shape of such
physical features as hills, ridges, valleys, streams, and Lakes.
Topographic maps show these features .
Hydrology
Hydrology is the science relating to the water of the earth , its
distribution and its phenomena. To be successful, a dam and reservoir
project must have an adequate and continuous supply of water suitable
for theory intended uses of the reservoir. Hydrologic information and
investigation will be required in varying degree, depending upon the
size of the project . The annual rainfall, the ratio of watershed area to
reservoir area, and the volume of stream flow at all seasons of the year
must be known.
5. Hydrogeology
Hydrogeology to determine whether ground water would
contribute to the reservoir or whether the reservoir would lose
water to the ground-water system is also essential. The
reservoir capacity and maximum and minimum reservoir yield
also must be known so that commitments for water will not
exceed the quantity of water available.
Geology
It has been said that construction of a dam and reservoir causes
more interference with natural conditions than does any other civil
engineering operation. Knowledge of the geological situation is
essential as a basis for sound engineering, especially in the
investigation of dam and reservoir sites, for an error in geological
interpretation or the failure to discover some relatively minor
geologic detail may be costly and sometimes Hazardous.
6. 1. Reduce sediment inflow
sediment delivery to the reservoir can be reduced by techniques such
as erosion control and upstream sediment trapping.
2. Route sediments
Some or all of the inflowing sediment load may be hydraulically
routed beyond the storage pool by techniques such as drawdown
during sediment-laden floods, off-stream reservoirs, sediment bypass,
and venting of turbid density currents.
3. Sediment removal
Deposited sediments may be periodically removed by hydraulic
flushing, hydraulic dredging, or dry excavation.
7. Provide large storage volume
Reservoir benefits may be considered sustainable if a
storage volume is provided that exceeds the volume of the
sediment supply in the us watershed. The required sediment
storage volume may be included within the reservoir pool or
in one or more us impoundments.
Sediment placement
Focus sediment deposition in areas where its subsequent
removal is facilitated, or where it minimizes interference
with reservoir operation. Configure intakes and other
facilities to minimize interference from transported or
deposited sediments.
8. Check Dam
check dam is a small dam, which can be either temporary
or permanent, built across a minorchannel, swale, bioswale,
or drainage ditch. Similar to drop structures in purpose, they
reduce erosion and gullying in the channel and allow
sediments and pollutants to settle
10. Essential measures to alleviate the sedimentation of
reservoirs are to reduce the sediment entering the channel
and increase the sediment flushing rate. Some efficient
measures are listed in follows.
11.
12. Using the operation of storing clean water and
discharging muddy flow to mitigate reservoir
sedimentation. Low water levels are used during flood
season to discharge more sediment, and high water
levels can be operated during dry season.
18. Geological investigation well done before the
planning and design of any reservior/Dam.
There is no doubt thet India’s water stroage
reservoir are silting up.
Silt deposits had reduced the water stroage
capacity by 30-40 % in major Dams.
The desilting in any reservoir in the region is
to carried ourt only during the south west
Monsoon time.
