Crossfire, neither spillway is on the earthfill dam.
Right, syc,....they both sit on solidly agglomerated seam and fault free GRANITE bedrock,the very bones of the fuggin' earth. ....no, wait,....la la land pixie dust poofing makes whatever that schidt is even STOUTER than that.

That's the trick with dam building, they're cheaper if you build them where the river is, rather than wandering around looking for optimum bedrock.
Hydro_Quebec and those Ontario boys have it made, the Canadian shield and plenty water, everybody else has to work with what they got.
p/s I doubt if you will be up to speed on this topic, but I appreciate your occasional willingness to learn.
