Expand
titleFunction definitions:

  • Ana-Branch Weir – is a weir located on the anabranch of a watercourse. 

  • Balancing Storage – An above ground barrier forming a reservoir, usually found within a distribution system and /or pipeline and is generally used to balance water inflows and outflows.

  • Barrage – A physical barrier across a watercourse or waterway preventing the inflow of tidal waters, separating salt and freshwater.

  • Dam – A barrier designed to hold back the flow of water forming a reservoir.

  • Off-Stream Storage – A barrier located outside the bed and banks of a watercourse and are utilised to store water by pumping from the adjacent watercourse during run-off events.

  • Saddle Dam – A subsidiary dam of any type, built across a saddle or low-point on the perimeter of a reservoir.
