They found that up to 70 meters of the dam had fallen into the river and allowed water to damage 5 homes; 3 received major damage.Engineers have decided to rebuild the stretch of dam using support poles rather than the original sand piles that likely were the cause of the erosion.Pakkred Municipal authorities have been empowered to provide financial assistance to those whose homes were impacted by the situation.-- NNT 2016-04-13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
