Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Cofferdams

👉 A cofferdam is a type of dam constructed to provide water storage and flood control. It is typically built on a hill or slope, with a channel running along its surface. The purpose of a cofferdam is to divert water from one area to another, usually downstream in a river or stream. This can be done through the construction of a dam that is high enough above the water table to allow for the flow of water over the dam.
