Little Para Reservoir is a reservoir in South Australia serving the city of Adelaide. It was built between 1974 and 1977, costing A$11.5 million, and commissioned in January 1979.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SA Water: Water Storage (Reservoirs) - Little Para )〕 The reservoir is built in the path of the Little Para River and is used for water storage and flood mitigation. As the Little Para's catchment is insufficient to fill the reservoir, it is mainly used to store water pumped from the River Murray.〔 Periodically water is released from the reservoir into the river, enabling refreshing of ground water. Overlooking the reservoirs is a public park with tennis courts, playgrounds, public toilets and information about the initial construction of the dam.
