Proposed dam Skalička – conflicts and challenges

Original language description

The construction of the Skalička embankment dam is planned in the Moravian part of the Czech Republic on the river Bečva. Its main purpose is to protect the area downstream of the dam against floods; its additional purposes may be water supply, hydropower production, environmental and social effects. The location of the dam is exposed to complicated geological and hydrogeological conditions, as well as environmental and social conflicts. Recently, the appropriate variant of the scheme has been searched for using the multi-criteria analysis, where all aspects are carefully investigated and assessed. As the dam is located in the karst region, the most important challenges are the hydrogeological issues including the assessment of the dam’s impact on the adjacent spa Teplice nad Bečvą, where the mineral water is extracted from the karst system. Another task is to verify the technical design of the dam, mainly the method and the extent of the sub-base sealing, the drainage system and its impact on the local groundwater regime. The paper describes and discusses the proposed variants of the dam layout. It also presents the results of the hydrogeological research and modelling, as well as recommendations concerning the technical solutions used for the dam. The authors lists and shortly discuss the basic aspects taken into account in the multi-criteria analysis, along with the main conflicts accompanying preparation of the scheme.
