The Upper Tabuating Dam is a multi-purpose earth-fill dam located at Barangay Nazareth, General Tinio, Nueva Ecija in the Philippines. It is located at the upstream of Tabuating River near the border of General Tinio and Fort Magsaysay in Palayan.
Inaugurated in May 2021, it is part of the Upper Tabuating Small Reservoir Irrigation Project (UT-SRIP) of the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) of the Philippines which was designed for tourism, aquaculture, cash crops and power generation.
The project was inaugurated on May 25, 2021 which provides irrigation for 700.87 hectares (1,731.9 acres) of agricultural land, cultivated by at least 223 farm families living in Barangays of Bago, Nazareth and Rio Chico in General Tinio, and Barangay San Mariano (Maugat) in nearby Peñaranda town. Some 12,000 tilapia fingerlings were also released in the dam's reservoir which has a total capacity of 4,960,000 cubic metres (4,020 acre⋅ft).
