When the Levee Breaks: Chinese Dam Breached, Imminent Failure Possible

The Chinese army warned that a stricken dam in the centre of the country "could collapse at any time" after being severely damaged in torrential storms that killed at least three people and brought the region to a standstill.

Weather authorities have issued the highest warning level for central Henan province as downpours caused widespread disruption and the evacuation of residents of flooded streets.

On Tuesday evening the regional unit of the People's Liberation Army warned that the relentless downpour had caused a 20-meter breach in the Yihetan dam in Luoyang -- a city of around seven million people -- with the risk that it "may collapse at any time."

The PLA's Central Theater Command said it had sent soldiers to carry out an emergency response including blasting and flood diversion.

"On July 20, a 20-meter breach occurred at the Yihetan dam ....the riverbank was severely damaged and the dam may collapse at any time," it said in the statement.

Floods are common during China's rainy season, which causes annual chaos and washes away roads, crops and houses.

But the threat has worsened over the decades, due in part to widespread construction of dams and levees that have cut connections between the river and adjacent lakes and disrupted floodplains that had helped absorb the summer surge.

Is there a Wu-Flu lab below the dam? Asking for the world:seasix:

I want to say '**** em' but the average Chinese peasant has nothing to do with the asshole government. I am conflicted.

Where's the idea that these people are smart come from?

Was that a guy scuba diving on the street that I saw? Wow, a lot of these people look like they're just standing around patiently waiting to drown.

It won't matter. When the dam does bust wide open, Xiden will send the Chicoms our tax $$$

Red SUV made a perfect 3 point turn in the river. I can’t imagine being in an underground subway with rising water like that.
