Abstract

Water infrastructure is a valuable national asset which makes it possible not only to make use of water resources but also to manage water courses to protect the population and conserve volume reserves during dry seasons or prolonged drought. This work presents information about storage works, control of courses and diversions in the country. It includes all of the dams registered in the national inventory, with over 20 years of documentation and direct site observations. This study also comments on the structural conditions and functioning of the dams.
