San Vicente Dam, Gravity dam in San Diego County, California
The concrete San Vicente Dam extends across San Vicente Creek, reaching a height of 337 feet and storing water in the San Vicente Reservoir.
Construction of the original 220-foot dam started in 1940 and finished in 1943, providing municipal water storage and flood control for San Diego County.
The San Vicente Facilities form part of a comprehensive water management system, connecting communities throughout San Diego County through vital infrastructure.
The reservoir supplies drinking water to San Diego County residents through an integrated network of pipelines and pumping stations across the region.
The 2014 expansion project increased the dam's height by 117 feet, making it the largest roller-compacted concrete dam raise in the United States.
