water retaining construction - the construction holding water from one party on more high level than with another;

the water-engineering system - the group of hydraulic engineering constructions combined by platitude of arrangement and conditions of their joint operation;

upper and lower byef - the section of the river (channel) located respectively above and below water retaining construction;

pressure - exceeding of level of headwaters over lower;

water storage basin - the artificial surface reservoir formed by water retaining constructions for the purpose of water storage and regulation of drain;

nagivation lock - the hydraulic engineering construction as a part of the water-engineering system serving for transition of courts and rafts from one byef in another;

the main parts of nagivation lock - the camera, the heads and approaches;

lock power supply system - set of devices which serve for filling and emptying of the camera of lock;

protection of water objects - system of the measures directed to prevention or liquidation of pollution, contamination and depletion of waters, preserving and recovery of water objects;

safety of hydraulic engineering constructions - condition of security of society and the environment from threat of origin and effects of accidents on hydraulic engineering constructions, system of organizational and technical actions for no-failure operation.

Chapter 3. Requirements to personnel

8. On hydroconstructions the daily work with personnel directed to increase in his professional skill, strengthening of responsibility for smooth operation of constructions, injury prevention shall be carried out.

9. Work with personnel of hydroconstructions shall be organized and control personally directors and chief engineers of the companies of waterways, chiefs of departments of hydroconstructions and water-engineering systems.

10. On hydroconstructions the following obligatory forms of education and increases in professional skill of personnel are performed:

Results of check and assessment of knowledge of operational regulations, job descriptions and safety regulations of work shall be registered special form which needs to be stored at the companies of waterways. Log entries about examination of the operating safety regulations of work and User Rules for Operating Electrical Equipment are made separately.

The certificate is issued to the workers who underwent examination, and, besides, the qualification group on the existing User Rules for Operating Electrical Equipment and User Safety Rules for Operating Electrical Equipment is appropriated to the personnel servicing electrotechnical installations.

The workers who received unsatisfactory assessment undergo in a month rechecking of knowledge, but not earlier than in two weeks.

The workers who received repeatedly unsatisfactory assessment shall be transferred to other work corresponding to their knowledge or the appropriated lower qualification group.

Chapter 4. Basic principles of the organization of operation of hydroconstructions

14. Hydroconstructions and their equipment shall correspond to the approved project and executive documentation and technical specifications.
