McGuire Reservoir is an impoundment of the upper Nestucca River in Yamhill County in the U.S. state of Oregon. It is the primary raw water source for McMinnville Water and Light, which supplies drinking water to the city of McMinnville.[2]
Before a 21st-century project expanded the reservoir,[3] it had a surface area of about 136 acres (55 ha) and a shoreline of about 4.8 miles (7.7 km).[4] The expansion increased the holding capacity of the reservoir from 3,760 acre-feet (4,640,000 m3) to 9,800 acre-feet (12,100,000 m3).[2][5]
