Damming arroyos


Hi! I have a dry stream bed or arroyo bordering my desert property. We have considerable flood water there in the spring and sometimes also in winter. Is it possible to dam an arroyo like that and get sufficient water for irrigation? I’m sure that I need to build a stronger dam, unlike simple check dams. I’m also aware that I will need to shovel out the silt accumulation in the pond.
