Summary
Lucie, Florida. Managed by the local government, this structure was designed by USDA NRCS and plays a crucial role in irrigation and flood risk reduction within the region. Completed in 1959, Control Struc #2 stands at 14 feet tall and spans 75 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 272 acre-feet and a drainage area of 71.05 square miles.
Situated on the banks of Ten Mile Creek (C-7), Control Struc #2 is regulated by the state of Florida and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its operational effectiveness. With a low hazard potential and a condition assessment of "Not Rated", this structure has not been modified since its construction. Despite its age, Control Struc #2 continues to serve its primary purpose of irrigation while safeguarding the surrounding area from potential flooding events.
Control Struc #2, with its stone core and soil foundation, represents a vital piece of infrastructure in the Jacksonville District. Although not under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers, this structure remains a key component in the water resource management system of St. Lucie County. As climate change continues to impact water resources in the region, the role of Control Struc #2 in maintaining water quality and quantity will be increasingly important for the community and environment alike.

Dam Data Reference
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.
