Fonte River Dam

The Fonte River Dam is a historic dam on the Fonte River on the island of Guam. It is located in the upper third of the river's main valley, which is located between Nimitz Hill Annex and Agana Heights, and lies below and west of the Libugon scenic overlook on Nimitz Hill. The dam, built in 1910, was part of the first organized effort by the United States Navy to provide a reliable water supply to the island's major settlement, Hagåtña (formerly Agana). It is a concrete structure 150 feet (46 m) long, 24 feet (7.3 m) high, and has a 17 feet (5.2 m) base. It is almost complete obscured by jungle overgrowth.
