Guide for valuing mud extracted from dam reservoirs in Morocco

All over the world, dam managers are constantly confronted with the siltation of dam reservoirs. This natural phenomenon represents a menace to the safety of the dam; because sediments deposited amplifies the load applied to the dam and shut off the dam’s bottom outlet. It also reduces the usable ca...
