This private earth dam, with a height of 17.9 feet and a hydraulic height of 16.2 feet, impounds a maximum storage of 69.8 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 7.4 acres. The dam is classified as low hazard potential and has not been rated for condition assessment.
Despite being unregulated by the state and lacking regular inspections, Jane Lake Dam presents a moderate risk level (3) according to the data available. With an uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates, the dam's associated structures remain unspecified, and emergency preparedness measures like the existence of an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) are not reported. The dam's risk management and mitigation strategies are also not detailed in the dataset, leaving potential concerns for water resource and climate enthusiasts regarding the safety and resilience of Jane Lake Dam in the face of natural hazards.
