Deutsch Dam, located in Marshall County, Iowa, is a privately-owned earth dam completed in 1960 with a primary purpose of fire protection, stock, or small fish pond. The dam stands at a height of 35 feet and spans 577 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 110 acre-feet and a surface area of 7.5 acres. Situated on TR-Clear Creek, the dam is regulated by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and is subject to state permitting, inspection, and enforcement to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations.
Despite being categorized as having a low hazard potential, Deutsch Dam is considered to have a moderate risk level, with a risk assessment rating of 3 out of 5. The dam has not been assessed for its condition and does not have an established Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place. While the dam's maintenance and safety measures are not explicitly outlined in the available data, its location and purpose suggest its importance in providing water resources for fire protection and agricultural activities in the surrounding area. With its proximity to Mingo and the Rock Island District, Deutsch Dam serves as a vital infrastructure for water management and conservation in the region.
