The Vajiralongkorn Dam, formerly named the Khao Laem Dam, is Thailand's first rock filled dam with a concrete facing slab, located in Thong Pha Phum district of Kanchanaburi. The dam lies across the Khwae Noi River and was renamed Vajiralongkorn Dam after Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn on 13 July 2001. The construction of the dam construction began in 1979 and it took five years to complete. The hydro power electricity production is 300MW. Three 100MW generators came respectively on line in October and December 1984 and February 1985. The water reservoir created by the dam has a maximum storage capacity of 8,860 million cubic meters covering a total catchment area of 3,720 square kilometers. The average runoff into the reservoir is approximately 5,500 million cubic meters per year.
