Figure B3 shows the contour map of the area of a planned dam reservoir. The contour interval is 50 m and the contours of 200m and 300m are shown with thicker lines. The total area enclosed within the 150m, 200m, 250m, 300m and 350m contour line is 1km?, 12km?, 25.5km2, 46km2 and 58km2, respectively. The proposed location of the dam is shown with a dashed line. Figure B3 km 10 proposed dam location 8 6 3001 4 200 & 2 O 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 km The dam is designed to have a nominal height of 200m above the 150m contour. It is desirable that there is at least a 7m freeboard (difference between the elevation of the crest of the dam and the maximum water elevation in the reservoir). What is the maximum volume of water that can be safely stored in this reservoir?
