Lake Lurleen Dam, located in Coker, Alabama, was completed in 1954 and serves as a recreational haven for water resource and climate enthusiasts.
The dam, primarily owned by the state, was designed for the purpose of recreation and stands at a hydraulic height of 35 feet and a structural height of 41 feet. It impounds the TR-BIG CREEK river, creating a reservoir with a storage capacity of 3,164 acre-feet.
Although the dam has a low hazard potential and is currently rated as "Not Rated" in terms of condition assessment, it has not been inspected recently, and its emergency action plan status is unknown. Despite these uncertainties, Lake Lurleen Dam continues to attract visitors with its scenic beauty and recreational opportunities. With a maximum discharge of 3,730 cubic feet per second, the dam provides a tranquil setting for fishing, boating, and other outdoor activities for residents and tourists alike.
