Henry Hagg Lake is a reservoir created in 1973 by construction of the Scroggins Dam, covers 1,132 acres when full, and is operated by the Tualatin Valley Irrigation District. The reservoir provides water to the TVID and the cities of Forest Grove, Hillsboro, Beaverton, and Lake Oswego and also provides the Tualatin River 50% of its total volume during summer months. Because the Tualatin River does not have snow melt as a resource, it relies on water from Henry Hagg Lake to maintain fish and wildlife habitats.
