The history of reservoirs and dams in the USA is closely tied to the country's development and growth. Major river systems like the Colorado, Columbia, and Missouri have been extensively dammed to provide water for irrigation, hydropower, flood control, and recreation. Many of these dams were constructed in the mid-20th century ...reservoirs, dependent on Kansas reservoirs to maintain streamflow for diversions, maintaining sufficient water quality for human uses, and providing drought resiliency.
