abstract: "Anonymised survey responses of resource persons who have been involved at the first hand with actual cases of dam re-operation to release environmental flows. The survey elicits information on cases of successful and stalled dam re-operation to release environmental flows and covers how the process occurred, who was involved, what flow manipulation was targeted, why dam e-flows  was desired and the hurdles encountered and overcome in the process.  

The data has been anonymized by removing information on:
Duration (of the survey)
Recorded date
Response ID
Distribution channel
User channel
Sharing reports or emails of others.
And, anonymizing one personal opinion and a personal referral in the comments"
