That been said, I've been checking some of the stories and though there is a lot of pressure on the dam from the extensive flooding, some of the stories seem just BS. Stories that they are blowing up smaller dams without warning killing hundreds of villager to relieve pressure on the TGD. I can't figure out how blowing up a smaller dam either upstream or downstream would in any way relieve pressure on the TGD. And even if it could, why blow them up? They have water release gates.
