paper is to show provide a case study of the Enlarged Cotter Dam project in Canberra, Australia. This paper will use the 5 dimensions of project management as the guide and layout. Background: First some background information about the Enlarged Cotter Dam. The Enlarged Cotter Dam is a Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) approximately 80 meters in height and located 125 meters downstream of the existing Cotter Dam. The Enlarged Cotter Dam (ECD) will increase storage capacity of the Cotter Reservoir

construction of the Nam Theun 2 Dam, located in the Lao People 's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), in Southeast Asia. The problems created by this project are examined along with the question of whether or not international financial institutions (IFI), such as the World Bank (herein after referred to as “the Bank”) are able to provide assistance in an objective, unbiased and responsible manner. Nam Theun 2 Dam Project Overview Completed in 2010, the Nam Theun 2 Dam (herein after referred to as “NT2”)

study: Effects of hydroelectric dams (3 gorges dam) Introduction/research question: The Three Gorges Dam spans the Yangtze in China. Construction began in 1994. It is the largest hydroelectric dam in the world. So far china has benefited very well economically from renewable energy production and pollution and the burning of fossil fuels has been avoided and this source of energy has become vastly popular.

More than 400 dams, 11 run-of-the-river dams on the mainstem and hundreds of major and modest structures on tributaries block river flows and tap a large portion of the Columbia's generating capacity: more than 21 million kilowatts.” It goes on to say that “Rock Island Dam on the middle river was the first major hydropower producer on the Columbia.” The Rock Island Dam, however, pales in size to the much larger Bonneville and Grand Coulee Dams that the federal government completed
