Fairgrounds Dam, located in Taylor, Iowa, along the E 102 River, was completed in 1980 and is privately owned. The dam stands at a height of 16 feet and has a storage capacity of 235 acre-feet. While it is regulated by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and subject to state inspections and enforcement, its hazard potential is considered low and its condition is currently not rated.

The dam, with a length of 80 feet, serves as a key structure for water resource management in the area, with a drainage area of 90 square miles. It is designed to control the flow of water and mitigate flood risks in the region. Despite its importance in water resource management, the dam has not been assessed for emergency action preparedness or risk management measures.

Fairgrounds Dam, situated within the Kansas City District, plays a vital role in regulating water levels and ensuring the safety of surrounding communities. With its low hazard potential and state-regulated status, the dam serves as a crucial infrastructure for maintaining water resources and mitigating climate-related risks in the region.
