El Atazar Dam is an arch dam built near Madrid, Spain on the Lozoya River, very close to where the Lozoya joins the Jarama. The curved design of the dam is optimum for the narrow gorge in which it was built to retain water in the reservoir. Arch dams are thin and require less material to construct than other dam types.

— The reservoir behind North Fork Dam, across the North Fork of Bens Creek, is the primary source of domestic water supply for Greater Johnstown. The 1930s dam also presents a flood risk since ...
The dam is more than half a kilometre wide and, at a height of 202 metres, one of Spain's tallest structures. The dam supplies the Villarino Power Station with water via a tunnel for hydroelectric power generation. It is located underground about 14 km (8.7 mi) west of the dam.
Instead, dam removal diversifies the river’s use in a community, restoring what was once there before dam construction. Bellingham’s diversion dam on the Middle Fork of the Nooksack River was ...
The Tibi Dam (in Spanish embalse de Tibi) is a masonry dam on Monegre River about three kilometres (two miles) south of Tibi in Valencian Community, Spain. It is one of the oldest non-Roman dams in Europe. It was constructed between 1579 and 1594 with the purpose of using its reservoir to help irrigate areas around Tibi.
