This article describes the various and detailed works of research, project and construction regarding this complex work that connects Hunderknoll and Vollerwiek. The four most important parts are: a) the creating of an artificial island; b) construction of the Eider dam; c) the actual Eider reservoir, and d) the auxiliary dam that reaches as far as Tonning, dividing the marshland of Katinger and that of Eider. Due to the rough sea at certain times of the year, the movement of the iceblocks in winter and the yearly transport of great quantities of sand, tests on a small scale have been carried out so as to achieve an almost perfect project as a considerable improvement for this region with a great tourist future. The work has been promoted by the Governmental Fluvial and Navigation Department. Both in the construction of the dam as well as the reservoir the following firms took part: Philipp Holzmann, Ltd.; Dyckerhoff & Widmann KG; Siemens-Bauunion GbmH and Max Giese-Stahlbetonbau GbmH.
