The Krasnodar Reservoir ( Russian Краснодарское водохранилище / Krasnodarskoje wodochranilischtsche ), also Cuban Sea ( Russian Кубанское море / Kubanskoje more ), is a dam in Russian Kuban basin that the flood control and irrigation for rice cultivation is used. Most of the lake, which was dammed in the 1970s, is in the Adygea Republic , and a small part in the Krasnodar Territory .
history
To the east of Krasnodar was a floodplain landscape traversed by the Kuban and inhabited by Circassians . The swampy area was a breeding ground for malaria mosquitoes that repeatedly among the local population malaria triggered -Epidemien. Floods in the river prevented agriculture and caused damage in Krasnodar.
In 1940 the construction of the Chechik Reservoir ( Russian Тщикское водохранилище ) began - a first attempt to tame the water masses of the Kuban. The barrage was at the level of the Wasjurinskoi station ( Russian Васюринской ) and dammed the Beloi ( Russian Белой ), a left tributary of the Kuban. The hand-built dam was unable to cope with the floods of 1966. It broke in several places so that 300,000 hectares of cultivated land were flooded.
In July 1967 the Council of Ministers of the USSR decided to build a new, larger reservoir on the Kuban. Construction of the dam began on April 3, 1968. 13,000 people had to be resettled, living in twelve fully flooded villages and ten partially flooded villages. Most were settled in the newly established Adygeisk and in Tlyustenchabl . The damming of the lake began in 1973 and the work was officially completed in late 1975.
In 2019, the renewal of the locks in the main barrier was approved. The barrier structure is equipped with a fish lift .
