Constructed in 1997 by the USDA NRCS, this earth dam stands at a height of 34 feet and has a storage capacity of 63 acre-feet. With a drainage area of 0.23 square miles and a surface area of 2 acres, this dam plays a vital role in flood risk reduction along the TR-Morman Creek.

With the Rock Island District overseeing this site, the dam serves as a critical infrastructure for water resource management and climate resilience in the region.
