The Guajataca Dam, near Isabela, Puerto Rico suffered significant damage to its service spillway caused by Hurricane Maria’s heavy rains.
Multiple agencies are working together on a long-term mission to stabilize, repair and improve the dam before the next hurricane season.
FEMA and the government of Puerto Rico requested the support of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Many DoD support personnel have helped to support this operation, this video captures of the individuals that has helped to make that possible.
