| 释义 |
Long Branch Dam is a dam in Macon County in northern Missouri, about eighty miles north of Columbia, Missouri. The dam is a project of the United States Army Corps of Engineers to provide flood control, water storage, wildlife conservation, and recreation. Completed in 1978, the 71-foot-high earthen dam impounds the water of the East Fork of the Little Chariton River.[1] Long Branch Lake is the reservoir created by the dam, with about 24 miles of shoreline and a flood-control capacity of 98,000 acre-feet. In addition to the adjacent state-run Long Branch State Park with three separate units,[2] the dam has a visitor's center at its southern end, and the Atlanta State Wildlife Area at its northern end.
