Keomah Lake Dam Nearing Completion
The Keomah Lake 900 foot dam is within 30,000 cubic yards of completion and its 300 foot base is mature enough to retain water up to about 13 feet deep. The project will submerge upstream territory to near the road grade and create an initial water spread of over 20 acres. Bean river supplies strong head of water near the dam, with ample water for construction and no need for well water despite a seasonal well dug north of the dam.
