description

Summary

Significance: The existing Star Lake Dam is actually the second retention structure built on that lake. The Provo Reservoir Company had built a small dam over the natural outlet by 1923; that was replaced with this structure in 1926. The present dam and secondary dike are typical earth-fill structures in an average state of preservation.
