Jim Woodruff Dam
The Jim Woodruff Dam is a significant structure located on the Chattahoochee River in the southeastern United States. Completed in 1957, it serves multiple purposes, including flood control, hydroelectric power generation, and recreation. The dam creates the Lake Seminole reservoir, which is a popular spot for fishing, boating, and camping.
The dam is named after Jim Woodruff, a former Georgia state senator who played a key role in its construction. It is operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and helps manage water resources in the region, benefiting both local communities and ecosystems.
