This earth dam structure, completed in 1939, stands at 19 feet tall and spans 1350 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 409 acre-feet. The reservoir serves as a critical resource for water supply in the region, with a normal storage capacity of 292 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 330 cubic feet per second.
