These communities are Naugatuck, Middlebury, and Waterbury. A dam was created across Hop Brook in Naugatuck and the lake that was created is known as Hop Brook Lake. ConstructionConstruction of the dam commenced in December 1965 and was completed in December 1968, costing $6.2 million. The relocation of {{convert|1.8|mi|km}} of Route 63 was required. The project includes an earthfill dam with stone slope protection {{convert|520|ft|m}} long and {{convert|97|ft|m}} high; an earthfill dike measuring {{convert|400|ft|m}} long and {{convert|33|ft|m}} high; a gated rectangular {{convert|425|ft|m|adj=on}}-long concrete conduit three feet wide and five feet high; and a chute spillway edged in rock with a 200-footlong broad-crested weir. The weir's crest elevation is {{convert|17|ft|m}} lower than the top of the dam. The flood storage area of the project, which is normally empty and is only utilized to store floodwaters, is {{convert|1.5|mi|km}} long and spreads out over {{convert|270|acre|km2}}. The project and associated lands total {{convert|553|acre|km2}} throughout Naugatuck, Middlebury, and Waterbury. Hop Brook Lake can store up to {{convert|2.23|e9USgal|m3}} of water for flood control purposes. This is equivalent to eight inches (203 mm) of water covering its drainage area of {{convert|16.4|sqmi|km2}}. RecreationHop Brook Lake contains a {{convert|21|acre|m2|adj=on}} recreation pool that has a maximum depth of {{convert|18|ft|m}}. Hop Brook Lake contains largemouth bass and panfish.
