Taum Sauk
AmerenUEReynolds CountyMISO
Taum Sauk is a 440 MW pumped-storage hydroelectric plant in Missouri, owned and operated by AmerenUE, now Ameren Missouri. It has been part of the region's economy since 1963. Its upper reservoir breached in December 2005; Ozark Constructors rebuilt it as a 54.5-acre roller-compacted-concrete dam, the largest of its kind in North America, with the last concrete poured in November 2009. After FERC permitted a return to normal project operations on April 1, 2010, the plant was generating again.
