Chalberhöni Dam

The catchment dam in Chalberhöni is taking shape. The foundations for the main dam are in place and being worked on as well as the necessary upstream temporary dam, which is also formed. Concreting is next.

From the upstream temporary dam a large diversion pipe leads the river water away in order to facilitate a dry working place and the security that no cement gets mixed in to the river water. The dimension of the project is sufficient for now despite the season’s snow melt and relatively warm weather conditions. Workers and Chalberhöni residents are now hoping that no major storm is going to arrive during the summer season prior to the dam project being in the sufficient condition to perform its task.
