With a storage capacity of 2650 acre-feet, it serves the primary purpose of irrigation for the surrounding area, covering a drainage area of 3.5 square miles.

Located in Valley County, Idaho, Jemima K plays a crucial role in water resource management for the region, ensuring a stable water supply for agricultural activities.
