[edit] HCB

The text of the article states that "Until 2007 the dam was operated by Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa and jointly owned by Mozambique, with an 18% equity stake, and Portugal, which held the remaining 82% equity." This gives the impression that the dam is not operated by HCB after that date, today even. To the best of my understanding this is not the case: it is still operated by HCB but what changed was its share structure, HCB is now a Mozambique majority owned company.

"only Egypt's Aswan dam is bigger in terms of surface water.". Lake volta is the largest man-made lake. So doesnt that fit in on the top above Lake Nasser created by Asswan dam? —Preceding unsigned comment added by SudhirP (talk • contribs) 05:14, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
