snoop1130 Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Pasak Jolasid Dam The Department of Public Disaster Prevention and Mitigation has issued an urgent warning to the governors of Thailand’s central provinces of Lop Buri, Saraburi, Ayutthaya, Pathum Thani and Nonthaburi to brace for possible flooding of households along the Pasak River. The department said that the Royal Irrigation Department has found it necessary to protect the Pasak Jolasid reservoir from overflowing by increasing the discharge of excess water to 400 cubic metres/second, after the department had estimated that, from Monday until October 1st, as much as 515 million cubic metres of water will flow into the reservoir, meaning it will reach its capacity by Friday. The excess water discharged through the Pasak Jolasid Dam will flow into the Pasak River and flood areas along both banks, especially in areas not protected by embankments or flood walls in the Tha Rua district of Ayutthaya province, which may experience water level increases of 2-2.5 metres.

Toany Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) Pasak was at 100% yesterday. So it is even worse than they expected. The dam was virtually empty a month ago, so there is no mis-management this time. They have done everything they can.
