The earth dam, standing at a height of 26 feet with a hydraulic height of 28 feet, serves as a barrier for the 1132-acre storage lake. The dam's design, classified as a buttress core type, has a spillway that is uncontrolled and outlet gates that are also uncontrolled.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the dam has a moderate risk assessment rating of 3. The last inspection of the dam took place in September 2005, with a scheduled inspection frequency of every five years. While the condition assessment is listed as "Not Rated," the emergency action plan (EAP) status and risk management measures remain undisclosed. The dam's location on Strouds Creek adds to the water resource management and climate considerations for enthusiasts in the area.
