Lake Success (California)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lake Success is a lake near Porterville, California on the Tule River. It is formed by Success Dam and has a capacity of 82,300 acre-feet (102,000,000 m³). The 142 foot (43 m) tall earth dam is owned and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Its construction was completed in 1961. The project's primary purpose is flood control, but the lake also provides water for irrigation and recreation.
