Sepulveda Dam

Sepulveda Dam was built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles District and completed in December of 1941. Sepulveda Dam was constructed to provide flood protection after the Los Angeles Flood of 1938. Together with Hansen and Lopez, Sepulveda Dam is vital for flood risk management of portions of the San Fernando Valley and areas contiguous to the Los Angeles River.

The primary purpose of the dam and reservoir is flood risk management, but the project is also authorized for recreation. The Corps acquired a total of 2,131.9 acres in fee for construction, operations, and maintenance of the Dam. Of the total acreage, the Corps reserves 313.0 acres exclusively for operation of the Dam, and 1,526.8 acres have been leased to the City of Los Angeles for recreational purposes.

For detailed physical data visit the Reservoir Regulation page. Additional information on Sepulveda Dam and Reservoir can be found in the Sepulveda Dam Basin Master Plan.
