new construction divides the Danube into main stream and New Danube
and is operated only in case of floods. In periods without flooding,
two further weirs guarantee horizontal water levels in the New Danube
so that it acquires a lake-like character. The New Danube also has
a system of secondary dams. The essential elements are the flood
protection dam on the left bank of the New Danube, the "Right
Danube Dam" on the right bank of the Danube and the confinement
dams of the port facilities. In the case of a flood, maximally 14,000
m3/sec can be drained off without damage."
