close to the urban residental district.
Therefore
to
preserve
the environment and to
prevent
the
polution caused
by the
construction
works, the
special
attention
was paid to
the
following
points.
(1)
The
perfsct
recycle
use of water for the
works.
(2)
The
prevention
of noise
and dust at the aggregate
plant
aDd
concrete mixing
plant.
(3)
The adoption of the
travelling
jib-crane
to decrease
the
quantity
of excavation
of both sides
of the dam to
a
minimum.
