The dam-site would be located on the Kickapoo River about 1 mile north of La Farge, in Vernon County, southwestern Wisconsin. The dam would be an earth-fill structure with an overall length of 3,960 feet and a maximum height of 103 feet. The conservation or recreation pool at elevation 840 is designed to impound 33,000 acre-feet of water with a surface area of about 1,780 acres extending about 12 miles upstream. Local flood protection measures for the downstream communities of Gays Mills and Soldiers Grove have been approved; however these are separate projects which will be treated in separate environmental impact statements.
