If it doesn't look like any movement, then probably just a void that was poorly compacted when they were building up the back of the dam..

Agree with these two - looks like poor compaction. Find out from the contractor what they did. Fill and compact those ruts and the area around them. Call Mike Otto and send him pics and get advice.
