Significance: The dam was built as part of a flood control and water conservation program in Los Angeles County to protect the growing community and provide water as the demand increased. The dam was designed by the Los Angeles Flood Control District under S.M. Fisher, the Chief Designer, in cooperation with Fred A. Noetzli, the Consulting Engineer. Fred A. Noetzli promoted the design of multiple arch concrete buttress dams as an inexpensive solution to impound water for the developing Los Angeles basin.
