“03. Oroville Dam on the Feather River. Built fifty years ago, the Oroville Dam is the tallest in the United States at nearly 800 feet tall. The large spillway of this earthen dam threatened to fail after heavy rains in February 2017, and nearly 200,000 people were evacuated. We came close to realizing an unthinkable disaster. This crisis brings into sharp focus the need to assess an aging water infrastructure, especially with the emerging climate trend of increased episodes of aridity followed by larger moments of deluge.”
