Summary
Completed in 1955, this Earth-type dam on TR Ramar Creek offers a tranquil spot for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy. With a maximum storage capacity of 60 acre-feet and a low hazard potential, Stallings provides a safe and scenic environment for visitors to appreciate the beauty of nature.
Managed by the Mobile District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Stallings boasts a structural height of 12 feet and a hydraulic height of 10 feet. While the dam's condition is currently not rated, its purpose of recreation highlights the significance of preserving water resources for both ecological and leisure purposes. Despite its unregulated status, Stallings serves as a vital asset for the Snowdoun community, offering a serene escape for residents and visitors alike.
As climate change continues to impact water resources worldwide, dams like Stallings play a crucial role in maintaining water security and providing recreational opportunities for communities. With its peaceful surroundings and low hazard potential, Stallings stands as a reminder of the importance of sustainable water management practices in the face of a changing climate. As water enthusiasts and climate advocates, we must continue to support and protect vital resources like Stallings for future generations to enjoy.

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.
