Summary
While not regulated by the state, it is located in the Mobile District and falls under Congressional District 02, represented by Martha Roby. The dam, with a significant hazard potential, has not been rated for its condition and lacks important data such as height, volume, and completion year.
Despite its lack of comprehensive information, Alexander Pond Dam remains a key feature in the area's water resource landscape. Its recreational purpose adds value to the community, offering opportunities for fishing, boating, and other water-related activities. Given its significant hazard potential, there is a need for further assessment and potentially the development of an Emergency Action Plan to ensure the safety of surrounding residents in the event of a dam failure.
As water resource and climate enthusiasts continue to monitor and advocate for sustainable water management practices, Alexander Pond Dam serves as a focal point for discussions on dam safety and recreational use. With its location in a region prone to severe weather events, the dam's risk potential underscores the importance of proactive measures to mitigate hazards and protect the environment and local communities.

Dam Data Reference
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.
