Rose Reservoir, also known as Bill Rose Dam, is a privately owned water resource located in Clackamas, Oregon. Constructed in 1974, this earth dam stands at a height of 40 feet and serves primarily for irrigation purposes. With a maximum storage capacity of 350 acre-feet and a normal storage of 550 acre-feet, the reservoir covers a surface area of 29 acres and drains an area of 1.2 square miles.

Situated on a tributary to Rock Creek, Rose Reservoir boasts a spillway type of "Uncontrolled" and features a slide (sluice gate) for outlet gates. The dam has a significant hazard potential and is inspected every three years, with the last inspection conducted in December 2017. The risk assessment for the reservoir is moderate, with a DSAC (Dam Safety Action Classification) of 3. Despite being privately owned, the state of Oregon regulates and inspects the dam, ensuring its compliance with safety standards.

With its strategic location in Yoder, Oregon, Rose Reservoir plays a crucial role in supporting irrigation needs in the region. Its construction and management highlight the intersection of water resource management and climate adaptation, making it a significant site of interest for enthusiasts in these fields. The reservoir's design, capacity, and risk management measures contribute to its importance in ensuring water security and environmental sustainability in the area.
