English term or phrase: invert elevation
O termo aparece várias vezes no contexto. Alguns exemplos:

The invert elevation of the emergency spillway is approximately 371 m (as constructed for Stage 8) and the spillway is in a suitable condition to function, if required.

The current water level is approximately 8 m below the crest of the dam and 4 m below the invert elevation of the spillway.

The spillway consists of relatively flat connection channel with an invert elevation of 371 m and a steeper sloping discharge channel.

Cota de fundo, cota do invert são expressões usadas para tubos e tubulações. (tubos fazem tubulações quando interconectados). soleira é o termo empregado para vertedores de canais, represa, barragens: é esse o caso. Melhor verificar.
