The structure impounding Lake RBR was completed in December 1983, and full pool elevation (145 m above sea level) was reached in November 1984. The impoundment inundates part of the Savannah River watershed between Lake Hartwell Dam and the headwaters of Strom Thurmond Lake, into which the tailrace discharges (see Figure 1). Maximum depth is about 40 m, and the surface area is approximately 105 km2 (26,000 acres). 

More recently, DARPA has been granted Experimental Personnel Hiring Authority under Section 1101 of the Strom Thurmond National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1999. Under this authority, DARPA can directly hire up to 40 eminent scientists and engineers from outside government service for term appointments up to 4 years. These appointments may be extended to 6 years in specific cases. This authority significantly streamlines and accelerates the hiring process.
