PREFACE

This report on reservoirs In the United States was prepared In the Vvater Resources Division, L B Leopold, chief hydrologist, under the general superviSIOn of E L Hendncks, and subsequently M R Wllhams, chiefs, Surface Water Branch. It revises and supersedes Water-Supply Paper 1360-A, by N 0 Thomas and G E Harbeck, Jr, which In turn superseded Geological Survey Circular 23, by G E Harbeck, J r This text IS largely the work of the original author as presented In Geological Survey Circular 23. All three reports were prepared with the advice of 'V B. Langbein

The basiC data were obtained directly from the owner or operator of the reservOir whenever practicable Complete data were not avd,Ilable for all reservoirs

Acknowledgement IS made to the following agenmes and organizations for theu cooperatiOn In making the reservoir InformatiOn available the U S Army Corps of Engineers, the Bureau of Reclamatwn, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Sml ConservatiOn Service, and several other Federal agencies, agenmes of States, counties, and municIpalities; water users assomatwns, conservatiOn and IrrigatiOn ihstriCts, flood control and conservatiOn districts; many power, water, canal, and reservOir companies, as well as many Interested Individu.1ls.

In bringing this compilation up to date every effort was made to obtain the results of the most recent surveys to determine the reservoir capacity Possibly some of the data pubhshed hermn may Inadvertently be In error, and any corrections or additiOns that can be furnished by the user of these records will be appreciated

ABSTRACT

This report summarizes the storage capacities and related data of reservoirs and controlled natural lakes for the contermmous Umted States, Alaska, Hawau, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Data are given for all storage facilities havmg a usable capacity of 5,000 acre-feet or more and completed or under con-struction as of Jan 1, 1963 ,

A descriptive hst of reservoirs m the Umted States completed as of Jan 1, 1947, was first published (Geol Survey Circular 23) m March 1948 In 1056 Water-Supply Paper 1360-A, "Reservoirs m the Umted States," by N 0 Thomas and G E Harbeck, Jr , updated this hstmg and mcluded lists of reservoirs completed or under constructiOn as of Jan 1, 1954 Some of the data shown for reservoirs constructed before 1954 may have been corrected herem on the basis of the latest available reservoir survey

This report lists 1562 reservOirs and lakes, their usable storage totals 359,360,000 acre-feet, and the correspondmg surface area IS 14,831,000 acres

INTRODUCTION

Man has engaged In the control of flowing water since history began Among his early recorded efforts were reservOirs for munwipal water supplies constructed near ancient Jerusalem to store water brought there In masonry conduits (Draffin, 1939, p 122--127). IrrigatiOn was practiced In Egypt as early as 2000 B C by the Pharoah~. There the "basin system" was used until the 19th century; to store water the land was divided Into basins of approxi·mately 40,000 acres and separated by earthen dikes (Todd, 1929, p 536) The system was effective If flood waters of the Nile River flowed through canals and Inundated these basins; however, In years of no floods the crops suffered In India, the British found at the time of their occupancy of the Presidency of Madras a'bout 50,000 reservOirs which were used for IrrigatiOn; many of these reservoirs were believed to be of anment construction (Turneaure and Russell, 1909) ReservOirs were built to Improve the water supply of Athens during the periOd A D 115-130. Much has been written concernmg the elaborate collection and distributiOn sys1_,em built to supply Rome, and parts of the system still

remain as monuments to the engineering skill of the Romans In solving the problems of large-scale municipal water supphes

The need for adequate and controllable water supphes for the purposes of Irrigatwn, municipal supply, power, and flood control has long been recognized Unfortunately, man cannot effectively control the amount or time of precipitatiOn, therefore, he has utilized water storage to overcome the varmtwn In water supply Water storage has contributed matermlly to the economic development of the United States In the semiand sectwns of the vVest, the successful agriCultural economy depends largely upon storage of a part of the annual water supply for use durmg the gro·w1ng season The growth of our vast Industrial centers has been made possible only by means of adequate water supplies throughout the entire year for municipal and mdustrml use The Industrial expanswn In many regwns has paralleled the Increase In available hydroelectric power supphes The constructiOn of flood -control reservoirs has contnbuted materially to the protectiOn of downstream urban, municipal, and Industrial developments by retentwn of floodflmvs

The Interest of the U S Geological Survey In the reservoirs of the United States may be traced back to 1888, when the Sundry Civil AppropriatiOn Act of that year provided (Follansbee, 1939, p 33)

For the purpose of mve<stigatmg the extent to which the arid region of the Umted States can be redeemed by IrrigatiOn and the segregation of the Irr1gable lands 111 <such and regwn. and for the selection of Sites for reservoirs and other hydraulic works nece..,sary for the storage and utilizatiOn of water for IrrigatiOn and the preventiOn of flood<; and overflows, * * * the work to be performed by the Geological Sun ey under the directiOn of the Secretary of the Interior, the ~urn of one hundred thou <sand dollars * * *

The Irngatwn Survey ( 1888-90), a branch of the Geological Survey, conducted the first systematic InvestigatiOn of water resources Ill the Un1ted States During Its 2-year life much was done to evaluate the water resources of the arid "\Vest The IrrigatiOn Survey clearly demonstrated the need for comprehensive InvestigatiOns of reservOir sites and of potential 'vater supplies

Other legislatiOn affectmg the constructiOn of reservOirs Ill the West Included the Carey Act of 1894, wluch authonzed grants of pubhc lands to the Western States provided that such granted land would be 1rngated, recla1mmg the and lands however, "·as slow partly because the large size and great cost of many of the necessary proJects far exceeded the resources of any single State or pnvate Interest

The great development of the and West near the turn of the century was made possible largely by the constructiOn of storage reservoirs; where precipitatiOn was Insufficient for agrrculture, reservoirs were needed to hold spring floods caused by melting snmv and to retain

ra p1d runoff from short, but Intense, summer storms The first reservoir possessing a capaCity of 5,000 acre-feet or more and ha v1ng a provision for 1rr1gatwn was probably French Lake, bu1l.t In 1859, In northern California Few large reservoirs were built before 1900 1n the West, but thereafter constructiOn proceeded much more rapidly and by 1910 the capacity of reservOirs for 1rr1gatwn exceeded the capacity of reservoirs for any other use (fig 1) Total capacity for hydroelectric power In the thirties In single and multipurpose reservoirs forged ahead of capacity for 1rngatwn purposes, and total capacity for flood control In the early fifties overtook IrrigatiOn capacIty even though the capacity for IrrigatiOn has maintained a steady growth

The Reclama;twn Act, or Newlands Act, of 1902 provided Federal ~ud for the constructiOn of reservoirs This legislatiOn stimulated the constn1cbon of reclamatiOn works by providing a method of amortizIng heavy Initial costs over many years Because of th1s leg1slatwn, the development of the arid West advanced In the early years of this century 1n a way that It could not have done otherwise The settlement of the West proceeded rapidly as reservoirs were bu1lt to assure an adequate supply of water for agriculture

Most of the Irrigated farmlands are In the 17 Western States and, according to the Bureau of the Census, the following acreages In these States were Irrigated by surface water

vVhen these figures are compared with the usable reservOir capaCity for IrrigatiOn at 10-year Intervals, as shown In figure 1, It can be seen that farmland acreage Irriga;ted by water from streams and lakes has Increased at a much slower rate than the reservOir capaCity for Irrigation These figures IndiCate that the acreage Irrigated from surface water In the Western States has, to some extent, become stab1hzed at about 20 milhon acres. Two other conclusiOns can probably be drawn from the comparison Irrigation systems In recent years have required more storage per Irrigated acre than earher systems, and much of the large Increase, Since 1920, In storage of water for 1rr1gatwn has been utilized for the purpose of reduCing crop failure on land that IS already be~ng Irrigated

Reservoirs were constructed to supply water power long before the advent of hydroelectric power, but after the transmiSSIOn of electricity over long distances became possible, the constructiOn of hydroelectric reservmrs began an extraordinary growth The first hydroelectric statwn 'began operatiOn In 1882 In Appleton, Wis (Daugherty, Horton, and Davenport, 1928, p. 29) Rapid growth In reservmr constructiOn for power occurred Ill New England during 1890-1910 Hydroelectric reservoir construction has continued at a rapid pace, with great Increases In the Pacific States since 1910, In the South Atlantic States during 1920-30, and In the Mountain States durIng 1930-40 Completion of Lake Mead (Hoover Dam) and the reservmrs In the Tennessee Valley contributed greatly to the consistently sharp Increases during the penod 1930-50 shmvn by figure 1 The greatest n1crease In reservoir constnlCtiOn for power supply was Indicated during the 1950-59 decade By January 1963, about 32 percent of the total reservoir capacity In the United States was allocated for hydroelectric power productiOn

Installed hydroelectric generating capacity and the productiOn of hydroelectric power are compared with usable reservOir capacity for pmYer Ill figure 2 All three factors have consistently shown an up'Yard trend The greatest Increase In Installed generating capacity (15 2 m1lhon kilmYatts) took place during the 1950-59 decade along with the great Increase In reservoir storage for power during tlns perwd According to the Federal Power CommissiOn (1964) 38 milhon kilowatts, about 25 percent of the country's potentml hydroelectric capacity, was made available by January 1963 Tlns IS more than twice the generating capacity of reservmrs 111 1950

6 RESE'RVOIRS OF THE UNITED STATES

The production of power, which is largely dependent on demand, has increased at about the same rate as the increases in installed generating capacity and usable reservoir capacity for power. Annual production of hydroelectric power reached about 190 billion kilowatthours in 1962, "~hich is more than double the po··wer production of 1950.

Construction of reservoirs for fiood control received its first notable impetus in the early twenties with the completion of a reservoir network in the Miami River basin of Ohio, built as a consequence of the disastrous flood of 1913. Since 1930, the construction of floodcontrol reservoirs and the a1location of capacity for fiood control in multipurpose reservoirs has increased at a greater rate than that for any other use so that now the total reservoir capacity for this purpose is surpassed only by the capacity a1located for po,ver. Including reservoirs under construction on .Tan. 1, 1963, an increase of 48 mi1lion acre-feet in fiood-control capacity has occurred since 1950-the greatest increase for any use to date. This increase is due primarily to the construction of reservoirs in the Missouri River basin and in the States of Texas and Arkansas.

INTRODUCTION 7

The present compilatiOn of reservoirs In the United States IS an Inventory of facilities for the use and control of water, one of our most Important natural resources The purposes of reservOir constructiOn reflect the changes In the natwnal economy since water storage began In colmnal days and In the early years of the Republic, 1nany low dams and small storage reservOirs were built for small Industries and for log driving The earhest recorded effort to store a substantial amount of water was that In New Hampshire, where records show that a control structure built at the outlet of ~1assabesic Lake In 1738 Increa"ed the storage capacity of the lake by 19,000 acre-feet This early structure was built to operate a gristmill and a sawmill Most of the large reservmrs constructed In the early half of the 19th century were built to Insure adequate ·water supplies for the canal systems then In use Although some of these old reservmrs are still used to supply canals, many are now used only for recreatiOn and their onginal purpose 1s all but forgotten.

During the latter half of the 19th century, the water needs of rapidly growing cities In the East were outstripping their local supphes As a result, this penod has an appreciable Increase In reservoir constructiOn for municipal supphes

One of the earhest large reservmrs for navigatiOn was Cayuga Lake In New York, where a dam was built In about 1825 to raise the level of the lake to provide supplemental water for the Ene Canal The outlet structure for Lake Drummond In VIrgmia was also constructed about the same time to provide water for slack-season navigation The growth of reservOir capac1ty for navigatiOn was slow, and In the latter half of the 19th century, many of these reservOirs were abandoned Dunng past years, however, outstanding growth has taken place with the completiOn of multipurpose proJects having substantial allocatiOns for navigatiOn Most of this growth was due to multipurpose proJects In the Missouri and Tennessee RIVer basins ~1any reservmrs have also been created by dams constructed specifically to maintain navigable depths on streams such as the Oluo and upper MisSISSippi RIVer ~1ost of these reservmrs are not Included In the present compilatiOn because they are not storage reservOirs In the

, usual sense of storing ·watm for later release The following hst of reservmrs, In order of size, are those In the

United States that have usable capaCities of 2 milhon acre-feet or more All these reservmrs, except Painted Rock, are multipurpose, and all are In pubhc ownmslnp On Jan 1, 1947, there were only 11111e multipurpose reservons having usable capacities of 2 million acrefeet or more The Increase to 31 on Jan 1, 1963, exmnphfies the trend toward large multipurpose proJects In recent years

probably be attributed to 'Vorld vVar II. Of the 430 re ervoirs constructed since 1950, California leads with 66 ne'v reservoirs, follmved by Texas with 54.

Technical advances have made feasible the construction of large projects that had long been desirable but hitherto had been considered impracticable. Thus, as the number of reservoir sites suitable for economic development were utilized and the demand for storage capacity for various uses increased, it "·as necessary to resort to reservoirs much larger than those previously constructed.

Federally-sponsored programs have resulted in a significant increase in the number of reservoirs having Jess than 5,000 acre-feet of storage capacity. Since 1948, ·watershed protection and flood pre-

10 RES'EIRVOIRS OF THE UNITE<D STA'TIE.S

ventwn programs of the Department of Agnculture have resulted In the constructiOn of 3,100 reservous having an average capacity of about 1,000 acre-feet each The total storage provided by these rPlatlvely small flood-control proJects Is not appreciable at the present time (1964) Reservoirs having less than 5,000 acre-feet of usable capacity have not been Included In this compilatiOn, however, If constructiOn of small reservoirs for conservation and the preventiOn of floods, eroswn, and sediment damage continues, they could become much more Important In water control and supply

EXPLANATION OF COMPILED DATA

Table 1 shows data for reservoirs and controlled natural lakes having a usable capacity of 5,000 acre-feet or more that were completed or under constructiOn on Jan 1, 1963 Reservoirs are hsted alphabetically by States Included are reservoirs In the Commonwealth of Puerto RICo

A descriptive hst of reservOirs In the United States was completed Jan 1,1947 (Harbeck, 1948) vVater-Supply Paper 1360-A (Thomas and Harbeck, 1956) updated this hst and gave the reservOirs completed or under construction as of Jan 1, 1954 Since preparatiOn of vVater-Supply Paper 1360-A, new surveys have been made at many reservoirs to obtan1 current data on storage and on rate of sedimentation The InformatiOn giVen Ill table lis based on the latest available surveys, except In a few localities where the owner or operator IndiCated that recent surveys were not of sufficient accuracy to warrant a reviSIOn of prevwusly published data At some reservOirs the operating conditwns have been changed since 1954 or maJor construction work has affected the capacity, data shown Ill the table reflect these changes

It should be noted that the advance InformatiOn shown for reservOirs under constructiOn on Jan 1, 1963, Is based on the premise that the reservoir will be completed 111 accordance wtth the owner's plans

As It IS common practice In some regwns of the Uinted States to express reservOir capae1hes Ill units other than acre-feet, the following conversiOn factors may be useful

1 acre-foot=O 3259 mllhon gallons; 1 acre-foot=0.04356 million cubic feet, 1 acre-foot=O 5042 cubtc feet per second per day

NAME OF RESERVOIR AND STREAM

ReservOirs are hsted alphabetically witlnn each of the fifty States and Puerto RICo If the reser v01r IS on a boundary stream, common to ad] acent States, the reservOir IS hsted under both of the States Tlns duphcatwn should be taken Into account In any summatwn studies

DRAINAGE AREA

The drainage area at the dam 1s glVen where available and applicable In off-stream reservOirs the drmnage area rs omitted because In many of the reservons diversiOn does not bear any re]atwn to the main -stream flow

SURFACE AREA

The sur face area IS the water area of the reservOir, In acres, at the elevatiOn of the maxrmum controllable water level This level IS generally at the spillway crest, without flashboards

DEAD STORAGE

Dead storage IS the volume, In aCie-feet, below the lowest controllable pool level The clead-stmage figures shown rn table 1 are based on normal operating conchbons Normal operating condrtions may not exist where sluiceways, below the lo"·er hm1t of drawdown for power productwn, are opened The lmYer hmit of drawdown for many multipurpose reservoirs IS governed by the requrrements of navigatwn, recreatiOn, or conser vatwn, whrch may have been established by JUdicial decree or by agreements between the owners and other partres concerned The data 111 table 1 for those reservOirs subJect to additional drawdown are general1y based on normal operating condrtwns and are footnoted to rnchcate tlus fact In some reservoirs the dead-storage figure IS shmHl as zero when, In reahty, It IS unknown but considered neghgrble Dead-storage figures are generally not shown for natural lakes havmg permanent control structures at their outlets because this stmage IS usually unknown or of no practical Interest

TOTAL STORAGE

Total storage IS the volume, In acre-feet, below the maxrmum controllable pool level and Includes dead storage For a dam having an ungated overflow spillway, It IS the total volume below the spillway crest. When there IS flow over the spillway, the total volume of stored water exceeds the total reservoir capacity, but such unoontrollable excess storage IS excluded from tlus compilatiOn Many dams have been designed to allow temporary detentiOn of a considerable volume of flood water above the controllable pool level by the use of stoplogs or flashboards on the sp1llway crest Total storage figures based on the use of stoplogs or flashboards are footnoted as such 111

table 1

IDXP'IlAiNiA.TiiON OF COMPILED DATA 13

USABLE STORAGE

The usable storage IS the volume, In acre-feet, normally available for release from a reservoir below the max1mum controllable level For power and IrrigatiOn reservoirs, tlus definitiOn IS adequate For a flood-control reservoir the volume above the spillway crest IS excluded from the usable storage although recognized and allowed for In the design of the dam and reservOir For multipurpose reservoirs the volume available for release may be dictated by allocatiOns for variOus uses, but such comphcatwns have not been considered In this report

STORAGE RATIO

The storage ratw rs defined as the ratiO of usable capacity to the average annual runoff. Assuming average runoff conditiOns, this ratro represents the time, In years, required to l'lnpound a volume of water equal to the usable capacity Conversely, the storttge ratio represents the time required to release the usable contents from a reserVOir If the average natural rate of flow were maintained without any Inflow The storage ratw concept was first Introduced by Hazen (1914) In his analysis of storage capacity required for reservoirs for muniCipal water supply

To compute the storage ratw It was necessary to estimate the average flow at most dams. Computed storage ratws are reasonably accurate where long-term gaging-statwn records of flow are available at the dam or at any pmnt not too distant upstream or downstream Where such records were unavailable, however, estimates of average flow were generally made on the basis of comparison with other nearby gaged streams Although such estimates may be considerably In error, they may be considered adequate for the pur pose of computing the approximate storage ratw, wluch IS generally given to only one or two significant figures No storage ratws are given If the.. paucity of data precludes even rough approximatiOns of the average runoff or If the storage ratw would not be meanmgful, as Ill the case of an offstream reservoir filled by diversiOn from the mam stream Storage ratios have been omitted for those reservoirs In the Tennessee River basin where the ratw would not be representative owing to other apprecrable upstream storage "Itlun the same 'vatershed

In many reservons, particulaily those on the lmger uvers, the total volume of poss ble stma,ge constitutes only a small fractiOn of the total runoff A storage ratiO of 0 05 ye~u, m only about 18 days, "as chosen as a lo"er hm1t, and storage ratws less than tlus amount are shown as < 0 05

14 RE'SEIRVOIR1S OF THE UNlTEtD S'l1AT~S

The storage ratiOs shown are Int~nded only as IndiCators of the storage capacity of the reservmr as compared with the average flow of the stream and should not be used to estimate annual runoff

USE

The following classifications of reservoir use are shown In table 1 C, conservatiOn N, na vigatwn D, desiltrng P, power F, flood control R, recreatiOn I, Irrigation ,V, Industnal L, log drrving Y, lmY flow augmentation M, mmncipal

The uses for multi pur pose reser vons are hsteclin alphabetical order, not In order of Importance Only the present use may be Indicated for many of the older reservOirs that no longer serve their orrginal purpose, for example, some reservoirs origmally burlt for log drrving are now used only ±or recreatiOn or have had power generating equrpment Installed

DATE COMPLETED

The date completed rs the year In '"lnch constructiOn of the dam was completed At many clams, storage began dunng constructwn, and the begmning of effect o:f the reser von on streamflow therefore preceded the completron of the dam, particularly on the larger works Only the latest date o± completron IS shown for changes that appreciably affected the storage capacrty, such as the raisrng of the dam or the additiOn of gates At reservons where many changes have been made, the date of only the most significant change IS shown ReservOirs that "·ere under construction as o± Jan 1, 1963, are footnoted accordmgly In table 1

OWNER OR OPERATOR

The name of the owner or opera tor of the reservoir IS shown In table 1 Generally the owner and operator are the same, however, many western reservoirs that "·ere burlt by the Bureau of ReclamatiOn are operated by water users assocrahons The name of the owner or operator may prove of a'3srstance rn obbnnrng addrhonal data on any particular reservOir Included In this compilatiOn

RESERVOIRS IN THE UNITED STATES 113

SUMMARY OF RESERVOIRS BY STATES

A summary of reservoirs showing number, usable storage, and surface area, by States,

is given in table A reservo1r situated on a stream forming a State line is in-

eluded in table 2 for only that State which is first alphabetically For example, the

usable storage and surface area of Lake Mead are included only under Arizona, and this

fact accounts for the large disparity in the figures shown for Arizona and Nevada
