The dam's spillway is uncontrolled, and the outlet gates are also uncontrolled, indicating a need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance to mitigate any potential risks.
Although W.W. Robinson Lake Dam is not regulated by the state, it falls under the jurisdiction of Georgia and is subject to state inspections. With its picturesque location and vital role in providing water resources and recreational opportunities, this dam serves as a significant asset in the region for water resource and climate enthusiasts to appreciate and monitor for sustainability.
