Lakeside At Redwine dam
Lakeside At Redwine
Located in Fayetteville, Georgia, Lakeside At Redwine, also known as Millhaven Lake Dam, is a private earth dam primarily used for recreation. Built in 1945, this dam stands at a height of 34.2 feet and has a hydraulic height of 27.5 feet, with a maximum storage capacity of 154 acre-feet. The dam spans 300 feet in length and covers an area of 8.5 acres, making it a popular destination for water resource and climate enthusiasts.
While the dam's hazard potential is currently undetermined, its risk assessment is rated as moderate. Despite being privately owned, the dam undergoes state inspections and is designated for recreational purposes. The last inspection in July 2015 revealed the dam's condition as not rated, highlighting the need for further assessment to ensure its structural integrity and safety. With a risk management plan in place, Lakeside At Redwine serves as a vital water resource in the region, offering opportunities for outdoor activities and environmental appreciation.
As an earth dam with uncontrolled spillways and outlets, Lakeside At Redwine presents a unique blend of natural beauty and recreational potential. While its exact drainage area remains unknown, the dam's location in Fayette County, Georgia, provides a serene backdrop for visitors to enjoy. With a focus on risk management and safety, this dam serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining and preserving our water resources in the face of changing climates and environmental challenges.

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.
- 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.
- 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.
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, environmental 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.

About Lakeside At Redwine
Where does the data for Lakeside At Redwine come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Undetermined hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
