Clinton Dam in Denison, Iowa, is a privately owned structure designed by NRCS with a primary purpose of flood risk reduction. Completed in 2008, this earth dam stands at a height of 22 feet and spans 552 feet in length, providing a storage capacity of 82 acre-feet. Situated on the Trib East Boyer River, the dam serves to mitigate flooding in the area, with a hazard potential rated as low and a moderate risk assessment.
Managed by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Clinton Dam is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by state agencies to ensure its safety and functionality.
