Cold Springs National Wildlife Refuge

Cold Springs Dam is an earthen dam Шаблон:Convert northeast of Hermiston and Шаблон:Convert south of the Columbia River in Umatilla County, Oregon.

The dam impounds the water of the Umatilla River to create Cold Springs Reservoir, a component of the Umatilla Basin Project of the United States Bureau of Reclamation. Dating from 1908, the first generation of the bureau's projects in the American west, the reservoir supplies irrigation water for local agriculture in this arid and seasonally-cold desert region. The nearby 1927 McKay Dam and McKay Reservoir are part of the same water management project.

The reservoir also overlays the Cold Springs National Wildlife Refuge, established in 1909.

The dam stands Шаблон:Convert high and has a capacity of roughly Шаблон:Convert.[1]
