Sorry I missed that additional info. The GPS must be wrong as not near the dam

Yes, it is living in a dam and was photographed at the GPS location nearby.
I typed that in an additional information field but it got buried near the bottom of the screen.

The short antennae exclude Orthoptera, Its glistening appearance suggest its aquatic. Could it be a dragongfly nymph. I will change it to Odonata so the appropriate moderator can look at it.
