Walker Dam, located in Bonner Springs, Kansas, serves multiple purposes including fire protection and as a small fish pond. Built in 1967, this private-owned earth dam stands at a height of 23.7 feet and has a storage capacity of 91.7 acre-feet. The dam spans 350 feet in length and sits on Camp Creek-TR, with a drainage area of 0.27 square miles.
Despite being classified as having a significant hazard potential, this uncontrolled spillway dam has not been rated for its condition. The last inspection conducted was in September 2013, with a scheduled inspection frequency of 5 years. With a moderate risk assessment rating of 3, the dam's emergency action plan status, inundation maps, and risk management measures are currently unknown. Although the dam does not have any associated structures, its strategic location and purpose make it a crucial asset for the local community's water resource and climate conservation efforts.
