Approximately 87 percent of dams in Washington are earth fill dams, with the second most-common type being concrete gravity dams (6%). Only 113 dams in the state are taller than 50 feet (15 m). King County has 123 dams—the most of any county in the state. [1] The majority of dams were built between 1960 and 1999. [1]
