Havária na tajchoch Veľká Vodárenská a Klinger (február 1977)

Rok, strany: 2024, 29 - 34

Banská Štiavnica, renowned for its mining heritage, features a network of artificial water reservoirs, dams and canals known as "tajchy", that were crucial for mining operations in the past. Dam failure or damage can trigger uncontrolled water leakage, potentially resulting in flooding, property destruction, loss of life, and lasting environmental harm. Thus, ensuring the regular inspection and maintenance of dams in compliance with regulations is imperative for mitigating such risks. The paper examines the events of February 1977, during which adverse weather conditions led to the threat of dam failure for the Veľká Vodárenská and Klinger reservoirs in Banská Štiavnica, Slovakia. Through the interview, we find out about the key role played by the commander of the Fire Department of the Mine company Rudné in coordinating the emergency response efforts.
