Doesn't California also contain the largest earthen dam or something to that extent? It's not as impressive as the Hoover dam or the Three Gorges dam but it's still huge from what I understand.

Largest in the US at least.

Fairly recently it decided to shorten it's own spillway a bit though. Shortly afterwards it gained a whole lot of concrete.

Juan Brown has a very comprehensive series on that excitement[0]
