Dam spillway opening

A dam spillway is an essential structure designed to safely release excess water from the reservoir, ensuring the dam's integrity and preventing overflow. When water levels rise significantly, especially during heavy rainfall or snowmelt, the spillway gates are opened to discharge surplus water downstream. This controlled release helps maintain the reservoir's optimal level and protects the dam from potential damage due to excessive pressure. Spillways are engineered to handle large volumes of water efficiently, and their operation is critical for flood management, maintaining ecological balance, and ensuring the safety of communities downstream.
