Add pictures/sections as needed --> Deposition of sediments in the reservoir is problematic as it reduces the reservoir’s potential storage capacity. These accumulated sediments can be removed in a variety of ways including sluicing through the bottom outlet of the dam (if one exists) and dredging. “Existing reservoirs are routinely surveyed to determine sediment deposition and resulting..."
