This is a power generating dam on the uppermost reaches of the Tadami River, located on the border between Hinoemata Village, Minamiaizu County, Fukushima Prefecture, and Uonuma City, Niigata Prefecture. The dam is 157 meters high and 480 meters long. This dam created an artificial lake called Ginzan Lake (Okutadami Lake), with a flood area of 11.5 square kilometers, a total storage capacity of 601 million cubic meters, and an effective storage capacity of 458 million cubic meters (for comparison, Lake Inawashiro, famous for its power generation development, has an effective storage capacity of 333 million tons). The power plant was built on the downstream side of the dam on the Uonuma City side, by excavating 40 meters underground. The effective head is 170 meters. It drops 249 cubic meters of water per second, and has a maximum output of 560,000 kilowatts. Lake Okutadami functions as a regulating reservoir that releases water during the two dry periods of summer and winter, making the more than ten power plants in the Tadami River system function effectively. The construction of the dam was carried out as part of a specific regional development plan based on the National Comprehensive Development Act of 1950 (Showa 25), and the actual project was carried out by the Electric Power Development Company. Construction began in 1954, and the dam and power plant were completed in 1961. Construction began with the creation of an 18-kilometer tunnel for transporting materials, based in Koide Town, Niigata Prefecture (now Uonuma City). Today, this road has become a tourist road called the Okutadami Silver Line, and National Route 352 runs along the southern edge of the lake.

It is also called Lake Okutadami. It has an area of 11.5 km and a maximum depth of 75 m. Pleasure boats operate here from spring to autumn, and many tourists visit especially during the seasons of new greenery and autumn leaves. It is part of the Echigo Sanzan Tadami Quasi-National Park.

福島県南会津(あいづ)郡檜枝岐村(ひのえまたむら)と新潟県魚沼市(うおぬまし)の県境にある只見川最上流の発電用ダム。ダムの高さ157メートル、長さ480メートル。このダムによって、湛水(たんすい)面積11.5平方キロメートル、総貯水量6億0100万立方メートル、有効貯水量4億5800万立方メートルの銀山湖(奥只見湖)とよばれる人造湖ができた(なお電源開発で著名な猪苗代(いなわしろ)湖の有効貯水量は3億3300万トンである)。発電所は魚沼市側の地内のダム下流側に地下40メートルまで掘削して設けられた。有効落差170メートル。毎秒249立方メートルの水を落とし、最大出力は56万キロワットである。奥只見湖は夏季と冬季の2回の渇水期に放流する調整池の機能をもち、只見川水系に設けられた十数余の発電所全体を有効に機能させている。ダムの建設は1950年(昭和25)の全国総合開発法に基づく特定地域開発計画の一環として進められ、実際の事業は電源開発会社が行った。1954年に工事を始め、ダムと発電所が完成したのは1961年であった。工事は、新潟県小出(こいで)町(現、魚沼市)を拠点として、トンネル部分18キロメートルという資材輸送路をつくることから始められた。現在この道路は奥只見シルバーラインとよばれる観光道路となり、また国道352号が湖の南縁を走る。 [渡辺四郎] [参照項目] | | |福島・新潟県境にある人造湖。1961年(昭和36)に完成した奥只見ダムによってできた。奥只見湖ともいう。面積11.5km、最大深度75m。春から秋までは遊覧船が運航され、とくに新緑と紅葉の季節には多くの観光客が訪れる。越後三山只見国定公園に含まれる。新潟県魚沼市・福島県南会津郡檜枝岐村©新潟県写真家協会"> 銀山湖 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
