Built in 1968, the dam serves primarily for recreational purposes, offering a surface area of 42 acres and a maximum storage capacity of 324 acre-feet. The dam stands at a height of 20 feet and has a hydraulic height of 19 feet, with a length of 1400 feet along Quill Branch.
The dam, designed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, is classified as having a low hazard potential with a moderate risk assessment. Despite being privately owned, the dam is not regulated by the state and does not require permitting or enforcement. The last inspection in March 2018 deemed the dam to be in good condition, although it has not been rated for its overall condition. With uncontrolled spillways and outlet gates, the dam's risk management measures and emergency preparedness are not fully documented, suggesting the need for further assessment and planning in case of emergencies related to water resource management and climate impacts.
