Summary
Constructed in 1979 by the USDA NRCS, this Earth type dam stands at a height of 18 feet and has a length of 900 feet. With a storage capacity of 261 acre-feet, the dam serves the primary purpose of providing habitat for fish and wildlife in the area.
The dam on Port Royal Land & Timber CO #4 poses a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its condition assessment. Despite its moderate risk level, the dam has not been inspected since October 27, 1979. The spillway of the dam is uncontrolled and has a width of 100 feet, allowing for a maximum discharge of 360 cubic feet per second. While the dam has not been regulated or permitted by the state, it remains an important feature in the local ecosystem.
Given its location along the TR-Warrior River, Port Royal Land & Timber CO #4 plays a crucial role in maintaining the natural environment and providing essential habitat for aquatic life. As climate and water resource enthusiasts, it is important to monitor the condition and management of dams like this to ensure the safety and sustainability of our water systems in the face of changing climate patterns.

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.
