Summary
Built in 1957 by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, this Earth dam stands at a height of 19 feet and stretches 515 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 109 acre-feet. The dam serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock, small fish pond, and recreation, making it a vital resource for the local community.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Weil faces a moderate risk level due to its outdated inspection date of January 1, 1980. This risk assessment underscores the importance of conducting regular inspections and implementing proper risk management measures to ensure the safety and integrity of the dam. With a drainage area of 0.11 square miles and a maximum discharge of 630 cubic feet per second, Weil plays a crucial role in managing water resources and supporting the surrounding ecosystem.
With Martha Roby as the Congressional representative overseeing the area, Weil stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts between federal and state agencies in maintaining water infrastructure. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the preservation and upkeep of dams like Weil are essential in safeguarding the environment and enhancing resilience against future challenges.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
