Summary
Pope. The earth dam stands at a height of 36.5 feet, with a hydraulic height of 34.5 feet and a length of 900 feet. The dam has a normal storage capacity of 124 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 194 acre-feet, serving the purpose of irrigation for agricultural activities in the area.
Located in the city of Pebble Hill, the Mag Farms Lake Dam is under state jurisdiction and is subject to regular inspections. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates, with an undetermined hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating of 3. While the condition assessment is not rated, the dam's risk management measures and emergency action plan status are currently unspecified.
With a rich history of serving the local agricultural community, Mag Farms Lake Dam plays a vital role in water resource management in the region. As a significant infrastructure for irrigation purposes, the dam's construction and maintenance are essential for sustaining water availability for farming activities. The dam's location in Brooks County, Georgia, highlights its importance in supporting the local economy and contributing to the overall climate resilience of the area.

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.
