Kirkholm Subwatershed A-3700, located in Ida County, Iowa, is a vital water resource managed by the local government with assistance from the USDA NRCS. This subwatershed plays a crucial role in fire protection, stock watering, and small fish pond purposes, as well as flood risk reduction. The dam, completed in 1949, is primarily an earth structure with a height of 30 feet and a storage capacity of 32 acre-feet.

Despite its low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, Kirkholm Subwatershed A-3700 has not been rated for its condition assessment. The dam's spillway is uncontrolled, and there are no outlet gates or associated structures. With a drainage area of 0.17 square miles and a normal storage capacity of 11 acre-feet, this subwatershed serves as an important component of the local water management system. Further inspection and risk management measures may be necessary to ensure its continued effectiveness in the face of changing climate conditions.
