Oberon Dam or Fish River Dam is a major ungated concrete slab and buttress with earth embankment dam comprising a c.oncrete ski jump chute spillway and fuse plug across the Fish River upstream of Oberon in the Central Tablelands region of New South Wales, Australia. The dam's purpose includes flood mitigation, industrial, and water supply. The impounded reservoir is called Lake Oberon. ==Location and features== Commenced in 1943, completed over two stages in 1959, and upgraded in 1996, the Oberon Dam is a major dam on the Fish River (formerly, Fish River Creek), located approximately upstream, south-east of Oberon.
