The big flood actually came in '79. It washed out the bridge below the dam. The flood waters actually overran the dam. It wont happen again. There is a new concrete barrier wall that will hold the water in the basin should it happen again. It most likely wont though because we have much better forecasting now and the level can be lowered in time to allow for the storm fill.
