he X-Y Power Co. built a power dam. The company agreed to limit the level of the impounded water to elevation + 520 feet. During an unusual spring thaw and rain, the spillway jammed with ice, and the water rose to elevation + 529 feet, flooding several houses. The owners of these houses sued the company for damages caused by this flooding. What do you think of their rights in this situation? And explain in contracting point of view.

Q: 8. Which among the following is used as a regulating reservoir?

A:

Spillway design

A spillway is the overflow portion of the dam that carries the surplus discharge flow from the reservoir to the downstream, that is, it carries the flood water safely downstream, which is enough to be stored in that reservoir. Therefore, it acts as a safety valve for the dam because many failures of the dam arise due to the incorrect design of the spillway.
