The Duhok Dam is an earth-fill embankment dam on the Duhok River just north of city of Duhok in Duhok Governorate, Kurdistan region of Iraq. The dam was completed in 1988 with the primary purpose of providing water for irrigation. It is 60 m (197 ft) tall and can withhold 52,000,000 m3 (42,157 acre⋅ft) of water. The dam has a bell-mouth spillway with a maximum discharge of 81 m3/s (2,860 cu ft/s).[1]
Watersport on Duhok Dam has increased in popularity over the recent years, an increase in Jetski use in local lakes & dams[2] has brought more tourism to the area, providing an increase of income for locals in the surrounding villages and city.
