How Spillways Work
The Morning Glory Spillway also called the Glory Hole by locals is the largest drain in the world. A spillway is a structure used to provide the controlled release of water from a dam or levee downstream, typically into the river bed of the dammed river itself. In the United Kingdom, they may be known as overflow channels. Spillways ensure that water does not damage parts of the structure not designed to convey water. Spillways can include floodgates and fuse plugs to regulate water flow and reservoir level. Such features enable a spillway to regulate downstream flow—by releasing water in a controlled manner before the reservoir is full, operators can prevent an unacceptably large release later. Other uses of the term "spillway" include a bypass of dams and outlets of channels used during high water, and outlet channels carved through natural dams such as moraines.
