      <abstract>This map layer portrays major dams of the United States, including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The map layer was created by extracting dams 50 feet or more in height, or with a normal storage capacity of 5,000 acre-feet or more, or with a maximum storage capacity of 25,000 acre-feet or more, from the 79,777 dams in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers National Inventory of Dams. This is a replacement for the April 1994 map layer.</abstract>
      <purpose>These data are intended for geographic display and analysis at the national level, and for large regional areas.  The data should be displayed and analyzed at scales appropriate for 1:2,000,000-scale data.  No responsibility is assumed by the National Atlas of the United States in the use of these data.  Supplemental_Information: In the online National Atlas of the United States Map Maker, at scales smaller than 1:4,850,000 the data is thinned for display purposes.  For scales between 1: 4,850,000 and 1:22,000,000, dams are only shown if they have a height of 500 feet or more, or a normal storage capacity of 50,000 acre-feet or more, or a maximum storage capacity of 250,000 acre-feet or more (1280 dams).  At scales smaller than 1:22,000,000, dams are only shown if they have a height of 5000 feet or more, or a normal storage capacity of 500,000 acre-feet or more, or a maximum storage capacity of 2,500,000 acre-feet or more (290 dams).</purpose>

        <enttypd>Any artificial barrier, including appurtenant works, which impounds or diverts water, and which (1) is twenty-five feet or more in height from the natural bed of the stream or watercourse measured at the downstream toe of the barrier, or from the lowest elevation of the outside limit of the barrier, if it is not across a stream channel or watercourse, to the maximum water storage elevation or (2) has an impounding capacity at maximum water storage elevation of fifty acre-feet or more.  This Act does not apply to any such barrier which is not in excess of six feet in height, regardless of storage capacity or which has a storage capacity at maximum water storage elevation not in excess of fifteen acre-feet, regardless of height, unless such barrier, due to its location or other physical characteristic, is likely to pose a significant threat to human life or property in the event of its failure.</enttypd>

          <edom>
            <edomv>S</edomv>
            <edomvd>The potential hazard is significant.  A dam where failure or misoperation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns.  These dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be located in areas with population and significant infrastructure.</edomvd>

        <attrlabl>SYMBOL</attrlabl>
        <attrdef> A code indicating how the dam is symbolized in the National Atlas Map Maker.  The symbol is determined from the primary Purpose code given for the dam, which is the first or only code listed under the attribute Purpose.  Where the Purpose attribute contains a word or abbreviation instead of the appropriate code, the first letter of the Purpose value was still used to  determine the symbol code.  In these cases the symbol may not accurately  represent the true primary purpose of the dam.</attrdef>
