Frd No 8, also known as Little Delaware Mission WS Dam 8, is a vital structure owned by the local government in Muscotah, Kansas. Built in 1967 by A&E and USDA SCS designers, this dam serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction along Brush Creek-TR. Standing at a structural height of 27 feet and a hydraulic height of 24 feet, Frd No 8 spans 655 feet in length and has a storage capacity of 125 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 25 acre-feet.

Despite being categorized as having a low hazard potential, Frd No 8 has not been rated for its condition assessment. The dam's outlet gates are listed as "None," indicating a lack of flow control mechanisms. With no inspection date provided, it is unclear when the structure was last assessed for its safety and functionality. While the dam meets its primary purpose of flood risk reduction, there are no records of emergency action plans, risk assessments, or inundation maps prepared for this dam.

In the care of the local government and situated in Atchison, Kansas, Frd No 8 remains a crucial asset for managing flood risks in the region. However, with limited information on its current condition and emergency preparedness measures, there is a need for further evaluation and planning to ensure the safety and effectiveness of this dam in the face of potential climate challenges and water resource management needs.
