Jungman Dam, located in Van Meter, Iowa, is a privately owned structure that serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock, and small fish pond. Completed in 1990, this earth dam stands at a height of 29 feet and stretches 510 feet in length. With a storage capacity of 30 acre-feet, it provides essential water resources for the surrounding area.

Managed by the USDA NRCS and regulated by the Iowa DNR, Jungman Dam plays a crucial role in water management for the North Raccoon River. Despite its low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, the dam's condition is currently not rated. As an uncontrolled spillway type structure, it is designed to handle a drainage area of 0.08 square miles and a surface area of 2.4 acres.

With its strategic location and vital functions, Jungman Dam continues to be a valuable asset for water resource and climate enthusiasts in the region. Although it may not be a high-risk structure, its importance in maintaining water quality and availability for various purposes cannot be understated. As efforts to assess and manage its condition progress, the dam remains a key component of the local water infrastructure.
