Abstract: | Conclusions With respect to the complexity and uniqueness of the engineering-geologic conditions, the structures of the Plyavin'sk hydroelectric
station do not have analogs either in domestic or foreign practice of hydraulic engineering on soft foundations. The geological
surveys and investigations during the 12 years of planning, constructing, and operating the hydroelectric development yielded
reliable data for engineering solutions of the development and its structures, the expendiency and reliability of which are
confirmed by the operational data. The construction of the Plyavin'sk hydroelectric development under complex engineering
geological conditions was a school of valuable experience in the field of engineering geology.
