The reservoir's water level is regulated by the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District, which manages the snowpack providers and surface flow of the reservoir. The reservoir provides a crucial water source for agriculture and municipal uses in the surrounding area, contributing to the local economy and enhancing the quality of life for residents.
