Summary
Completed in 1976, this earth dam stands 22 feet tall with a hydraulic height of 19 feet and a length of 540 feet. It has a storage capacity of 66 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 748 cubic feet per second.
Even though the dam has a low hazard potential and is currently rated as not assessed for condition, it is considered to have a moderate risk level. The spillway type is uncontrolled, and there are no associated locks or gates. Despite not being state-regulated, Lake Krislor Dam serves as a critical water resource for the area, providing opportunities for recreation and wildlife habitat.
While the dam does not have specific inspection or emergency preparedness information available, its location on Brushy Creek-TR and its contribution to the local ecosystem make it an essential structure for water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor and appreciate. With its serene surroundings and functional design, Lake Krislor Dam is a valuable asset to the community and the environment.

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.
