Construction of a new east dam ~10 km east of the existing structure, replacement of the west dam's cast-in-place outlet, a new outlet spillway on the east dam, and raising of the west dam and crest road.
The expansion will add roughly 100,000 acre-feet of storage and increase the reservoirs' surface area by about 42%, flooding roughly 1,000 hectares of land.
The project was announced on July 9, 2021. Construction began August 2026; completion of the project will take up to four years.
