The Wolf Creek Dam is a multi-purpose dam on the Cumberland River in the western part of Russell County, Kentucky, United States. The dam serves at once four distinct purposes: it generates hydroelectricity; it regulates and limits flooding; it releases stored water to permit year-round navigation on the lower Cumberland River; and it creates Lake Cumberland for recreation, which has become a popular tourist attraction. Because of seepage problems in the dam's foundation, it has become the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers's top dam priority. U.S. Route 127 is built on top of the dam.

  • ГЕС Волф-Крік (англ. Wolf Creek Dam) – гідроелектростанція у штаті Кентуккі (Сполучені Штати Америки). Знаходячись перед ГЕС Cordell Hull, становить верхній ступінь каскаду на річці Камберленд, лівій притоці Огайо, котра в свою чергу є лівою притокою Міссісіпі (басейн Мексиканської затоки). Через водоводи діаметром по 6 метрів ресурс зі сховища надходить у пригреблевий машинний зал, обладнаний шістьома турбінами типу Френсіс. При середньому напорі у 52 метри це обладнання здатне забезпечувати виробництво 0,8 млрд кВт-год електроенергії на рік. (uk)
