Cross Creek Ranch, located in Folsom, California, is a privately owned earth dam that was completed in 1949 for the primary purpose of water supply. The dam, standing at a height of 23 feet with a hydraulic height of 19.5 feet, holds a maximum storage capacity of 55 acre-feet of water from the Tr Webber Creek. With a low hazard potential and a satisfactory condition assessment, the dam is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by the California Department of Water Resources' Safety of Dams division.

Managed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, Cross Creek Ranch serves irrigation and water supply needs for the surrounding area. The dam spans 410 feet in length and covers a surface area of 11 acres, with a drainage area of 0.05 square miles. With a maximum discharge capacity of 128 cubic feet per second, the dam plays a crucial role in ensuring water availability and flood control in the region. Despite its age, the dam has shown to be in good working condition, meeting regulatory standards and providing reliable water storage for the community.

In the event of an emergency, the dam has an established Emergency Action Plan (EAP) to ensure proper response and mitigation measures. Regular inspections and maintenance activities are conducted to uphold the dam's integrity and safety. With its essential role in water resource management and climate resilience, Cross Creek Ranch stands as a vital infrastructure for sustaining water supply and protecting against potential hazards in the El Dorado County area.
