I do not ...My concern is the mouth of the spillway. I do not think it has widened and deepened for a few days. I was following news and one TV Channel Dunya reported that there were experts suggesting mechanical/demolition methods to widen/deepen it. Remember the query I raised on 8:30 update. Here it is.<br /><br />[We have to consider that it is mostly the overflow that is getting into the course of the spillway. If the spillway does not widen, it will neither deepen. I am certain that leaving it as a fait accompli as an Act of God (endemic in Pakistan)will only make the Lake wider and longer upstream. A time will come when it hits the Glaciers. It will then be disastrous.<br />Some sort of mechanical or explosive earthworks are needed to deepen the spillway and remove barriers like boulders etc. <br /><br />Engineers and geologists have to keep options in hand due to constant land slides etc.]Brigadier (retired) Samson Simon Sharafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03164098937274649206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5381942232023234736.post-30717761059452662852010-06-07T21:19:12.205-07:002010-06-07T21:19:12.205-07:00I think those two rocks are not the culprits. actu...I think those two rocks are not the culprits. actually the four lined up rocks close to the bottom of the photo are actually resisting further erosion. Deeper erosion along those four rocks may lead to collaps of those two roack up the spillway and i am sure there might be other rocks bellow those four working as anti erosion support. i think inducing erosion manually required.i think inducing erosion manually required.Amanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02397836493202297646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5381942232023234736.post-2718642031523952782010-06-07T16:28:05.910-07:002010-06-07T16:28:05.910-07:00Hi Dave,

I travelled up here in 1978 while I was working on the Tarbela Dam.<br />Looking at some of the larger rocks above the channel.. These would seem to be useful to break up the flow if they could be moved to the channel.<br /><br />DavidDavid51https://www.blogger.com/profile/17035449157097539668noreply@blogger.com
