Abstract
This research thoroughly investigates the multifaceted challenges of sediment management at the Verbois Dam, a project that intersects technical, financial, social, and environmental dimensions. Recognizing the intricate nature of this task, the Services Industriels de Geneve (SIG) adopted a holistic approach that transcends traditional hydraulic methodologies. The primary aim was to develop a comprehensive decision support tool that encompasses two integral components: an analysis grid for assessing effects and a grid for evaluating durability. These elements work in tandem to facilitate a detailed scrutiny and assessment of current sediment evacuation tactics. Additionally, the tool’s adaptable architecture permits the exploration and refinement of novel management strategies. The findings of this study endeavor to make a substantial contribution to the sustainable handling of sediment in dam operations, effectively marrying technical efficacy with wider environmental and social considerations.
