The German reconstruction team is working on a new dam.
The new dam failed in 1942 with no loss of life.
Look at how the contracts were awarded to build the road to the new dam.
During the night of 4/5 February the still new dam could no longer hold back the water.
The new dam was completed in 1940 at a cost of AU£1.1 million.
The new dam allowed more ice to be harvested from the lake in winter.
The new dam was therefore built several meters in front of the old one.
The retaining capacity of the new dam is around 203,000 m3 greater.
Between 150 and 175 new dams will be needed.
A new dam is going to be built in a river that will provide power for the area.
