Imperial Dam
Located about 20 miles northeast of Yuma, Arizona, Imperial Dam is the diversion point for water flowing from the Colorado River to the All-American Canal, which serves Imperial and Coachella valleys. Imperial Dam was a first for the world of irrigation, where river water would be held and then diverted into a giant desilting plant before being released into the All-American Canal.

Senator Wash
The Senator Wash facility, although not considered a diversion structure, can divert water from the river immediately above Imperial Dam for storage in Senator Wash Reservoir. This is done only when flow arriving exceeds the requirements of the diverters at Imperial Dam.
