Lowe is a privately-owned dam located in Sonoma, California, specifically in the city of Healdsburg. This Earth-type dam was completed in 1959 and stands at a height of 30 feet, with a hydraulic height of 26 feet. It serves primarily as a water supply source, with a storage capacity of 108 acre-feet and a surface area of 10 acres. The dam is situated on Tr Franz Creek and is regulated by the California Department of Water Resources for safety and inspection.

Despite its satisfactory condition assessment as of September 2017, Lowe has a high hazard potential due to its location and design. It has undergone regular inspections, with the most recent one conducted in August 2020. The dam is equipped with emergency action plans, although details about their preparation and guidelines adherence are not specified in the data. The risk management measures and assessment for Lowe are not explicitly outlined, suggesting a potential area for further investigation by water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the dam's safety and resilience in the face of changing environmental conditions.
