I visited this fine work of engineering back in July.

Heres some pics of it.

Pics 5, 6, 7 and 8 are of the fish ladders .... for the migratory fish that need to go up and down the river.

You might be interested in seeing these photos of mine
Last year we had a massive flood which completely flooded 2 towns and caused all kind of mayhem
These pics are from the weir, that all the flood water had to flow through. The managers were extemely worried about the possibility of the dam breaking.

Cheers
