Adam Dam, located in Jefferson County, Iowa, is a privately owned earth dam constructed in 1997 by the USDA NRCS for purposes including fire protection, stock, and small fish pond. The dam is situated on TR- CROW CREEK and has a height of 32 feet and a length of 250 feet, with a storage capacity of 37 acre-feet. Despite being labeled as a low hazard potential structure with a moderate risk assessment, the condition of the dam is currently not rated.

Managed by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Adam Dam is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by state agencies to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations. The dam's spillway type is uncontrolled, and it has not been modified since its completion. Although the dam has not been assessed for its emergency action plan or inundation maps, it meets regulatory guidelines and is equipped with emergency contacts for risk management.

Situated in a rural area in the city of ROME, Adam Dam serves as a vital water resource for the community, providing water storage and recreational opportunities. With its unique design and purpose, this dam stands as a testament to the importance of proper water management in the face of changing climate conditions.
