Answer 4

it is Lake Powell.

While is flooded canyons, and covered archaeological sites, and has affected the Grand Canyon ecosystem by cutting the flow of water and flooding, Glen Canyon Dam has created a power source (hydroelectricity comes from the dam) and also a lake which stores water for farming and other uses, and a lake that provides a water recreation site.
