  Dike Kokaral - Open Encyclopedia
Dike Kokaral is a planned dyke to be built across a narrow stretch of the Aral Sea, splitting off the North Aral Sea (also called "The Small Sea") from the much larger South Aral Sea ("The Large Sea").
The dike's proponents believe that it will allow the quality and level of the North Aral's waters to be restored, and the climate and ecology of the surrounding populated area (including the large port town of Aralsk) to be returned to their former condition.
Dike Kokaral is called after the Kokaral Peninsula, which it would connect to the other shore of Aral Sea and this way separate the northern from the southern sea.

 Dike built to revive Aral Sea - World - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
KOKARAL, Kazakhstan -- Work is ending on a World Bank-financed dike intended to reverse the drying up of the Aral Sea in Central Asia, one of the planet's greatest environmental blunders.
The drying of the sea split it in two: the northern Small Aral sea in Kazakhstan, which is fed by the Syr Darya, and the southern Big Aral, in Uzbekistan, fed -- some years, if it rains -- by the Amu Darya.
Today, workers in Kokaral are putting the finishing touches on a five-mile-long dike that will hold up the Syr Darya's waters until its level rises by 10 feet, reducing salinity to levels that will allow the fish to return and water to flood about 300 square miles of now-dry seabed.
