Chuck Britton reports:
And the 'powers that be' are becoming more aware of the importance
and possibility of limiting siltation by periodic release of silt
laden water (water from the bottom of the lake rather than the 'top'
water that normally flows through the penstocks.
Can that be done easily? Does one have to bore a tunnel in or near
the dam far below the lake level? Can this be done at, for example,
Hoover Dam?
