[cool][#0000ff]The simple explanation is that it is a small dammed reservoir on the Sevier River, just before you get to Delta. It is also known as the Delta Reservoir. Here is a copy and paste from a website I checked:[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
The DMAD Dam and Reservoir ([url "http://www.waterhistory.org/histories/delta1/#fig2"]Figure 2[/url]) was a cooperative project of the four local irrigation companies (Delta, Melville, Abraham, and Deseret Companies, and thus the name of DMAD). The Abraham and Deseret Companies own and operate the Gunnison Bend Reservoir downstream of DMAD ([url "http://www.waterhistory.org/histories/delta1/#fig1"]Figure 1[/url]) and have a first priority right to the first 9,300 acre-feet of winter flows below Sevier Bridge Reservoir.
