Brocks Gap Dam
The Brocks Gap Dam was proposed in the late 1950s by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the North Fork of the Shenandoah River in Virginia. The dam was part of a series of dams proposed by the Corps' ''Potomac River Basin Report'', which proposed an ambitious series of water storage and flood control dams throughout the Potomac River basin, responding to a perception of need for additional water and a threat of flooding. The proposed dam was to be of earthfill construction, high and long, impounding a reservoir of , with a surface area of . Construction was planned to start in 1969 and be complete by 1973, at a projected cost of $16,437,000.
The dam proposal encountered intense local opposition from residents of the flooded area. Community groups organized a campaign against the dam. The dam plan was withdrawn in 1967, in favor of small dams on headwater streams, funded by the Soil Conservation Service.
