Cherokee Dam
Cherokee Dam is a gravity-type concrete spillway dam consisting of nine crest gates and eight sluice gates (the latter allowing reservoir control when water level is low). The combined capacity of the dam's four hydroelectric generators is 135,200 kilowatts. Cherokee Lake has a flood-storage capacity of 749,406 acre-feet (924,379,000 m3). The reservoir operates up to an elevation of 1,075 feet (328 m), and varies by 27 feet (8.2 m) in a typical year. The dam lacks navigational locks, although its design allows them to be added if the necessity for them should arise.
