Cutler Dam, located in Clive, Iowa, along the TR-Walnut Creek, is a privately owned structure primarily used for fire protection, stock, and as a small fish pond. Built in 1940, this earth dam stands at 32 feet tall and spans 350 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 50 acre-feet. The dam is regulated by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and is subject to state inspection, permitting, and enforcement protocols.

With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating, Cutler Dam has not been inspected since July 1986 and is currently listed as "Not Rated" in terms of its condition assessment. While it serves multiple purposes for the local community, including providing water for fire protection and recreational use, the dam's emergency action plan status, inundation maps, and risk management measures are not currently available. Despite its age, Cutler Dam continues to play a crucial role in water resource management in the area, highlighting the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance efforts to ensure its safety and functionality for years to come.
