To put this into perspective, 50 million tons of sediment transportation from a dam spillway would:


Fill approximately 20,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools
Cover an area of about 10 square kilometers (3.9 sq mi) to a depth of 1 meter (3.3 ft)
Require significant dredging or sediment management efforts to maintain downstream water quality and infrastructure integrity


This massive amount of sediment transportation highlights the importance of careful dam operation, sediment management, and environmental monitoring.
