#DYK Fresno Dam required 2,105,000.00 cu yd of material during its construction between 1937-39? The dam sits along the Milk River near Havre, Montana. 

An overflow-type spillway at the north end of the dam provides for a flow of 51,360 cubic feet per second through the concrete-lined channel. The outlet works discharge a maximum of 2,180 cubic feet per-second through two 72-inch steel pipe outlet tubes.

A conservation storage of 127,200 acre-feet is impounded in Fresno Reservoir. Provision also is made for flood control benefits.
