The Eastern Scheldt Storm Surge Barrier, called 'Oosterscheldekering' in Dutch, was designed to protect the (southern part of the) Netherlands from flooding. For detailed information about this nine kilometres long Storm Surge Barrier, please check-out this link and/or this link.

Hope you like this image. Thank you in advance for your comment.

Edit: my thoughts and prayers are with the potential victims wich may be affected from the hurricane 'Irene' who is hitting the eastern states of the USA now. Wish them a lot of strenght and hope they will not be flooded, wounded, and will not have material dammage.
