It looks like they have put large plates or slabs over some damage.

So... the dam there is actually a run of river design, it is not a flood or reservoir type.... The road way is elevated above the dam wall proper, the dam being earth, and gravity mix. On the southern side, there is a lock... that the single road crosses on a bridge. That would seem to be a choke point worthy of some precision, drop the bridge, take out the lock function without impacting the dam proper.
