With a dam height of 27 feet and a storage capacity of 261 acre-feet, this Earth dam serves multiple purposes including irrigation and wildlife habitat enhancement. The pond is situated on TR-BAKER CREEK and falls under the jurisdiction of the Mobile District of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Marshall Brothers Pond poses a moderate risk due to its location and characteristics. While its condition assessment is currently not rated, the pond has not undergone recent inspections or risk assessments. The spillway of the dam is uncontrolled with a width of 110 feet, and the maximum discharge is recorded at 560 cubic feet per second. Although the pond has not experienced significant modifications or incidents, the lack of updated emergency action plans and risk management measures may warrant further attention from water resource and climate enthusiasts to ensure the safety and sustainability of this vital water source.
