Abstract: This paper emphasizes on sedimentation challenges in reservoir thereby focusing on its mitigation measures to extenuate the challenges .The deterioration in the capacity brought about by the sedimentation has been clearly depicted and the mitigation measures to these challenges in order to enhance the existing capacity has been evinced. How the storage capacity of the reservoir gets depleted, the dams functioning becomes useless has been explored in this paper and some of the mitigating measures to it are properly defined. This paper tries to diagnose the challenges of sedimentation and its ill consequences brought about in storage projects with a broad view into some of its mitigating solutions.
Keywords: storage project, reservoir sedimentation, dam regulation, sediment estimation, sedimentation management, sustainability of reservoirs.
