Brookville Lake Dam, Embankment dam in Franklin County, United States
The Brookville Lake Dam stretches 2,800 feet across the East Fork of the Whitewater River with a height of 181 feet above the riverbed.
The United States Army Corps of Engineers constructed this substantial water management structure in 1974 to control flooding in southeastern Indiana.
The dam creates Brookville Lake, where local sailing associations organize competitions and maintain a strong community of water sports enthusiasts.
The structure maintains a water reservoir with a capacity of 359,600 acre-feet, providing essential flood control for the surrounding Franklin County region.
The dam supports a specialized fishing environment where anglers can catch ten different species including muskellunge, walleye, and multiple bass varieties.
