Drying up that portion of the canal with the help of a cofferdam has been suggested in order to correct the situation. It has been suggested that this structure be 50% of the width of the canal. What are your thoughts on this? Is this feasible? What are the consequences? You must clearly state your opinion and explain clearly the effects the cofferdam will have on the flow of water in the canal if it is set up as suggested.
