<br />
==Specifications==<br />
The height of the dam above lowest foundation is {{convert|41.75|m|abbr=on}} while the length is {{convert|1380|m|abbr=on}}. The volume content is {{convert|0.05174|km3|abbr=on}} and gross storage capacity is {{convert|0.05269|km3|abbr=on}}.<ref>[http://india-wris.nrsc.gov.in/wrpinfo/index.php?title=Kashypi_Dam_D03105 Water Resources Information System of India]</ref><br />
<br />
Downstream of this dam is the [[Gangapur Dam]] which opened in 1965. Due to silt deposition in the reservoir area, the storage capacity of the Gangapur Dam has gradually reduced. The right side canal running towards Nashik is also closed due to the high civilization in the area. For these two reasons, the Kashypi Dam was constructed.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.nashikirrigationdiv.com/dam/gangapur.html | title=Dams Under NID »» Gangapur Dam | accessdate=March 1, 2013 | url-status=dead | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130313092104/http://nashikirrigationdiv.com/dam/gangapur.html | archivedate=March 13, 2013 }}</ref><br />
