Pejar Dam, Embankment dam in Southern Tablelands, Australia.
The Pejar Dam stretches 367 meters across the Wollondilly River with an earth and rock-filled wall reaching 26 meters in height.
The New South Wales Department of Works completed the construction of Pejar Dam in 1979 to supply water for the growing city of Goulburn.
The reservoir functions as a recreational destination where anglers gather to fish for brown trout, rainbow trout, and Australian bass throughout the year.
The dam features parking areas, picnic tables, public toilets, and a gravel launch ramp for electric-powered boats and kayaks near Goulburn Road.
The facility maintains a storage capacity of 9,000 megalitres and includes an uncontrolled spillway that discharges overflow at 2,470 cubic meters per second.
