Summary

The dam primarily serves a recreational purpose and stands at a height of 9.8 feet with a structural height of 10 feet. It has a storage capacity of 179 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 17 acre-feet and a surface area of 7 acres. The dam is classified as having a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating.

Despite being privately owned, Stone Creek Dam (East) is not regulated or inspected by the state of Georgia. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates, with no associated structures. While the dam's condition is listed as "Not Rated," its risk assessment suggests a moderate level of risk, requiring potential risk management measures to be implemented. The last inspection of the dam occurred in June 2015, with no specific inspection frequency listed.

Stone Creek Dam (East) is part of the Mobile District and is not owned or funded by any federal agency. With its location in Bibb County, Georgia, the dam offers recreational opportunities for visitors and residents alike. While it presents a low hazard potential, the moderate risk assessment indicates the need for continued monitoring and potential safety measures to ensure the dam's integrity and the safety of those downstream.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
