299:. The dam is 340 feet (100 m) high above the streambed, 425 feet (130 m) above the foundations, and 5,200 feet (1,600 m) long, containing 44 million cubic yards (34,000,000 m) of material. The maximum thickness of the base is 2,350 feet (720 m). Flood waters are released through an ungated, concrete overflow spillway on the west side of the dam, emptying into a stilling basin called Castaic Lagoon (colloquially referred to as the "Lower Lake", while the larger Castaic Lake is called "Upper Lake"). The total storage capacity of Castaic Lake is 325,000 acreâ‹…ft (401,000,000 m), of which 31,000 acre-feet (38,000,000 m) is considered active capacity and 294,000 acre-feet (363,000,000 m) are considered inactive. The inactive capacity is only used during periods of extended drought or interrupted water delivery, most recently in 2014. At maximum water elevation of 1,515 ft (462 m) AMSL, the lake covers 2,235 acres (904 ha), with 29 miles (47 km) of shoreline. The much smaller Castaic Lagoon can hold 5,560 acreâ‹…ft (6,860,000 m) and covers 200 acres (81 ha). 348:, before traveling through the 7.2-mile (11.6 km) Angeles Tunnel to the upper end of Castaic Lake. Together, the two reservoirs can store 505,000 acreâ‹…ft (623,000,000 m), or about a year's supply of water. During normal operations, Castaic Lake serves as a regulatory reservoir for water delivered through the California Aqueduct, releasing it at times of peak demand. However, the dam and lake was also built to provide a pool of "emergency storage" that can be drawn down if water deliveries from northern California are interrupted, whether due to construction, equipment malfunction or severe drought. 452: 480: 423:, located 7.2 miles (11.6 km) to the west, serves as the upper. When demand for electricity is high, usually during the afternoon, water is withdrawn from Pyramid Lake and released into Castaic Lake. At night, when demand is low, water is pumped back into Pyramid Lake. The sale of peak electricity reduces the Department of Water Resources' overall electric costs for operating the California Aqueduct. 466: 352: 1564: 32: 379:
