No evidence that this small dam is a
notable subject. Just like roads, bridges, ... dams aren't automatically notable, and while many will be discussed in independent sources (as major constructions with a profound impact on the landscape), other ones like this (which basically create a pond, nothing more) will be largely ignored and fail
WP:N.

Keep. You wouldn't delete this if it were in an English speaking country. This is a one hundred year old dam, a significant infrastructure project that affected lives for more than a century.

Personally, I would delete this but since we have two votes for it already I'm going to have to say redirect per above. And I'm afraid that in this English-speaking country it's far more likely that we wouldn't bother naming such a small dam in the first place: there are two a short drive from my house that are each four times larger than this one which have no names.
