Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox dam Galisteo Dam (National ID # NM00002) is a dam in Santa Fe County, New Mexico.

The earthen dam was constructed in 1970 by the United States Army Corps of Engineers with a height of 164 feet and 2820 feet long at its crest.[1] Built solely for flood control and sediment impoundment on Galisteo Creek, with its "long history of violent floods",[2] the main line of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad was relocated to accommodate the project.[3] The dam is owned and operated by the Corps of Engineers.

The reservoir it creates, Galisteo Reservoir, is ordinarily dry. Its maximum capacity is 152,600 acre-feet.[1] No water recreation is available. Although the approximately five-acre site is open to the public for day use, the site is surrounded by private lands and lands of the Kewa Pueblo.[4]
