River which runs into the Black Sea. The main purposes of the dam are
irrigation, flood control and hydroelectricity. The hydroelectric power
plant (established in 1966) at the dam has a capacity of 27 megawatts

of material and irrigates an area of 21,350 hectares. The dam's spillway
is capable of discharging a maximum 2,800 m3/s and its bottom outlet a
