Full Description

Reservoir Management is the indispensable guide to managing all aspects of small to large reservoirs and dams. Reservoir managers now require a wealth of technical, environmental and legal knowledge alongside a background to key aspects of design, as well as safety know-how, in order to successfully manage their assets. There is also a need for reservoir managers to understand not just the technical fundamentals of reservoirs but to understand the impact they can have on the local environment. In this book, Andrew Pepper, with contributions from reservoir experts, covers all of the essential expertise and technical knowledge in one easy-to-read volume written with the practitioner in mind.

The book includes coverage of:

the various functions which reservoirs perform
roles and responsibilities of all involved in reservoir management
hydrological and water quality aspects of reservoirs
physical components and features of dams and reservoirs
maintaining mechanical and electrical equipment
ecology, amenity and recreation purposes of reservoirs
reservoir safety
incidents and emergencies
sediment troubleshooting
reservoir decommissioning.

This book will be an essential purchase for any reservoir manager, as well as for developers and designers looking to exercise good practice for the future management of new reservoirs.
