Summary
This Earth-type dam, completed in 1965, serves a primary purpose of "Other" and has a hydraulic height of 13 feet and a structural height of 15 feet. The dam has a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 130 acre-feet.
Situated on TR Mill Creek, this dam has a low hazard potential and is currently rated as "Not Rated" in terms of its condition assessment. While it is not regulated by the state of Alabama, there have been no reported issues with its operation or maintenance. Despite lacking certain regulatory oversight, the dam's purpose and design make it an important component of managing water resources in the area.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Evergreen Sewage Lagoon Dam presents an intriguing case study of a privately owned structure with a unique purpose. Its location in a rural area of Alabama highlights the diverse range of dams and water management systems across the United States. The dam's low hazard potential and unregulated status may raise questions about the oversight of similar structures and the importance of ensuring their safety and functionality for both human and environmental health.

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.
