Summary: Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India] Aug 2 (ANI): Nearly two months after Bada Talab in Bhopal reached
dead storage level, the water body has witnessed an increase of 11.35 feet in water levels after incessant rains lashed the city.
Other examples are automobile
dead storage, bulk petroleum storage, document storage and warehousing, lumber storage and whiskey warehousing.
The storage above sill level is called live storage and below the level is called
dead storage. The farmers of Badin have been protesting for months pointing out engineering faults in the canal which have increased the water shortfall to an alarming level.
Pakistan is of the opinion that the tunnel spillway of Pakal Dul should be raised closer to the
dead storage level because its placement 40 metres below the
dead storage level could allow drawdown flushing not permitted to India under the 1960 water treaty.
Even long-forgotten or rarely viewed data that reside in
dead storage file cases, bottom drawers of someone's desk, or the back memory of an employee's mind can have greater value when accessible and utilized.
It is pertinent to point out that the case of Kishanganga has already been considered by the Permanent Court of Arbitration at the Hague which, in its final award on the dispute, while recognizing the Indian right to build the dam, did address Pakistan's concerns about India keeping the level of reservoirs below the
Dead Storage Level and also recognized the concept of environmental flows in the rivers to ensure that the power generating projects were operated in an environmentally sustainable manner.

The present live storage capacity of the reservoir will be increased by excavating the deposited material lying between the
Dead Storage Level (276 feet) and Normal Conservation Level (339 feet) along the reservoir periphery'.
A statement from Wapda read 'Live storage capacity of the reservoir will be enhanced by removing the material deposits lying between the
dead storage level (276 feet) and the normal conservation (339 feet) along the reservoir periphery.'
In the closet, remove out-of-season clothing and
dead storage. All your closets will look larger if they are orderly and uncrowded.
