"Highly noteworthy" is the engineering, flood protection, and water delivery assets of the tallest dam in the United States. Governor Ronald Reagan dedicates Oroville dam in this story.
Oroville Dam is an earthfill embankment dam on the Feather River east of the city of Oroville, California in the United States. At 770 feet (230 m) high, it is the tallest dam in the U.S. and serves mainly for water supply, hydroelectricity generation and flood control. The dam impounds Lake Oroville, the second largest man-made lake in the state of California, capable of storing more than 3.5 million acre-feet (4.4 km3), and is located in the Sierra Nevada foothills east of the Sacramento Valley.

On March 16, 2011, Oroville Dam began releasing excess water from Lake Oroville for the first time in nearly five years, in an effort to decrease unseasonably high lake levels, and equilize the rate of high lake inflow from recent snowmelt combined with the overwhelming rate of rainfall runoff from several huge storms that swept through the area. Some areas of the northern Sierra Nevada mountains received upwards of 15 to 20 inches of rainfall during the first three weeks of March, in addition to several feet of snow that had fallen in some areas.
Flows on the Feather River below Oroville Dam were considerably higher than normal on Wednesday March 16th. I was on scene during this first day of water releases to capture shots both below and above the spillway at Oroville Dam as well as the increased river flow through the mid section of the city of Oroville. On March 15th, the release to the Feather River at Oroville Dam was increased from about 700 cubic feet per second (CFS) to around 10,000 CFS of water. Another series of large storms that approached northern California during the weekend of March 18th would cause another increase to the water releases late that day, and by March 19th, the release to the Feather River was at 18,000 CFS. The river would rise another 2 to 3 feet after this video was shot.

Oroville Dam is a rockfill embankment dam on the Feather River east of the city of Oroville, California in the United States. At 770 feet (230 m) high, it is the tallest dam in the U.S. and serves mainly for water supply, hydroelectricity generation and flood control. The dam impounds Lake Oroville, the second largest man-made lake in California with a capacity of more than 3.5 million acre-feet (4.4 km3), in the Sierra Nevada foothills east of the Sacramento Valley.
Built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Oroville is a principal feature of the California State Water Project (SWP), one of two major projects that comprise California's statewide water system. Construction started in 1961, and despite various difficulties including floods and a massive train wreck on the rail line used to transport material to the site, the towering main embankment was topped out in 1967, with the entire project ready to impound water in 1968. The dam began to generate electricity after completion of the Edward Hyatt Pump-Generating Plant, then the country's largest underground power station.
