New Don Pedro Dam

Local nameNew Don Pedro Dam
LocationTuolumne

New Don Pedro Dam, often known simply as Don Pedro Dam, is an earthen embankment dam across the Tuolumne River, about 2 miles northeast of La Grange, in Tuolumne County, California. The dam was completed in 1971, after four years of construction, to replace the 1924 concrete-arch Don Pedro Dam.

The dam serves mainly for irrigation water storage, flood control and hydroelectricity production, and impounds Don Pedro Reservoir in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada.

The New Don Pedro Dam is owned and operated by the Modesto Irrigation District and Turlock Irrigation District.
