Summary
This earth dam, with a height of 14 feet and a length of 320 feet, provides a storage capacity of 140 acre-feet, making it an essential resource for water recreation activities in the area. Despite being unregulated by the state, the dam poses a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its condition.
Located within the Mobile District of Georgia, Eubanks Lake Dam is equipped with an uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates. The dam has a moderate risk assessment level, indicating the need for ongoing monitoring and risk management measures. The last inspection conducted in July 2016 highlighted the dam's low hazard potential and moderate risk level, signaling the importance of regular assessment and maintenance to ensure its safety and longevity for recreational purposes.
While Eubanks Lake Dam may not be as widely recognized as other dams in the region, its contribution to water storage and recreation in Early, Georgia, is significant. With its low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, continued monitoring and maintenance efforts are crucial to ensure the safety and functionality of this vital water resource for climate enthusiasts and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo 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
HighDams 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.
