The Lagunitas Dam, completed 151 years ago, was built in less than four months and was 480 feet long with a crest of 20 feet. The purpose was to supply development in the San Rafael area. Its current capacity is 350 acre-feet or 114 million gallons. Lake Lagunitas is one of seven Marin Municipal County Reservoirs, and the combined rainfall collected from these reservoirs makes up around 75 % of the district's water supply.
