Built in 1957, this Earth-type dam stands at a structural height of 22 feet and has a hydraulic height of 17 feet. With a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet, Robinson serves primarily for recreational purposes and has a low hazard potential as assessed by authorities.
Situated in Congressional District 03 of Alabama, Robinson is managed by its private owner and does not fall under state regulation or jurisdiction. The dam does not have a spillway, locks, or outlet gates, and has not been rated for its condition. Despite its age and limited structural features, Robinson remains a popular spot for outdoor enthusiasts seeking recreational activities along the TR Snake Creek.
Although Robinson does not pose a high risk of hazard, its lack of recent inspections and condition ratings raises questions about its long-term safety and maintenance. As a key feature in the Mobile District of Alabama, this dam presents an opportunity for further assessment and risk management measures to ensure its continued recreational use and safety for the surrounding community.
