Smallwood Reservoir

Reservoir in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada

The Smallwood Reservoir is the reservoir created for the Churchill Falls Generating Station in the western part of Labrador, Canada. Unlike other reservoirs, water is contained not by a single large dam, but by a series of 88 dikes that total 64 km (40 mi) in length in the drainage area of the Churchill River. It is named in honour of Joey Smallwood, the first premier of Newfoundland.
