Wow, the Wiki on the dam doesn't read like a success story:
Coca Codo Sinclair Dam - Wikipedia

In December 2018, 7,648 large and small cracks were identified in the generator hall and in surrounding equipment.[2] The cracks were first discovered in 2014 but the full extent of them is unknown as a thorough assessment would include deconstructing portions of the power plant which is cost prohibitive.[6]

After the dam became operational, its reservoir caused regressive erosion upstream and water absent of sediment released from the dam has caused high rates of erosion downstream which likely led to two oil spills after pipelines along the river lost their footings. Downstream erosion, if left unchecked would undermine the dam and other oil infrastructure by 2022.[7] Additionally, the erosion has also destroyed Ecuador’s largest waterfall and is destroying the village of San Luis.[8]

Actually, engineering projects in China completely dwarf any comparable projects in the USA. They have 26,000 miles of high speed rail and have built 37 nuclear reactors in the last 10 years. Yep once in a while there are problems. I believe parts of the New York subway flooded during the last big rains.
