Millenkamp Dam, located in Elkport, Iowa, serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock maintenance, and as a small fish pond. Completed in 1999, this private dam stands at 27 feet tall and stretches 240 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 108 acre-feet. Situated on TR-ELK CREEK in Delaware County, Iowa, the dam is regulated by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular inspections and enforcement to ensure its safety and compliance with state regulations.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Millenkamp Dam poses a moderate risk due to its condition assessment being marked as "Not Rated." The dam features an uncontrolled spillway and has a surface area of 7.7 acres with a drainage area of 1 square mile. With its location in a relatively rural area, the dam contributes to local water resource management and provides essential services for the surrounding community. Enthusiasts of water resource and climate conservation can appreciate the role that Millenkamp Dam plays in maintaining a sustainable ecosystem in Iowa.
