Description: |

The Pa Sak River is a river in central Thailand. The river
originates in the Phetchabun Mountains, Dan Sai District, Loei
Province, and passes through Phetchabun Province as the backbone
of the Province. It then passes through the eastern part of
Lopburi Province and Saraburi Province, until it joins together
with the Lopburi River northeast of Ayutthaya Island, before it
runs into the Chao Phraya River southeast of Ayutthaya island
around Phet Fortress. It has a length of 513 km and drains a
watershed of 16,291 km2. The valley of the Pa Sak through the
Phetchabun mountains is the main part of Phetchabun Province. As
the watershed of the river is rather narrow, the amount of water
in the river varies seasonally. To address drought problems in
the lower Pa Sak valley, in 1994 the construction of the Pa Sak
Cholasit Dam (เขื่อนป่าสักชลสิทธิ์) in Lopburi Province was
started. The 4,860-meter wide and 36.5-meter high dam also
supplies about 6.7 MW of hydro-electric power. |
