Abstract/Additional Information
This bulletin presents a number of case histories. They are dams and reservoirs generally of a significant age. Thus a realistic picture is now available of the performance of each scheme related both to achievement of the main project purpose and to the various environmental impacts involved. It is intended that the reader should be able, through these descriptions, to assess the overall impact of each project in its totality on the communities and countries involved.
