Combinatiegemaal Rozema

Rozema pumping station is named after Harry Rozema, a hydraulic engineer from the Eemszijlvest Water Board. Water is discharged into the Eems via pipes through the sea dike. To secure fish migration from the Wadden Sea, the pumping station has a fish passage.

The pumping station was commissioned in 2000 to replace the nearby Cremer pumping station. At high outside water levels in combination with a large water supply, Rozema pumping station drains the Eemskanaal-Dollardboezem as well as the Oldambtboezem. For this purpose, a connecting channel has been created with a lock and weir/steam chambers between the Oosterhornkanaal (Eemskanaal-Dollardboezem) and Termunterzijldiep.
