Frd No 30, also known as Wakarusa Watershed District 35 Frd 30, is a vital local government-owned structure in Sibleyville, Kansas, designed by A&E and USDA SCS. This flood risk reduction dam, completed in 1979, stands at a height of 31 feet and has a hydraulic height of 30 feet. With a total length of 1670 feet and a storage capacity of 1323 acre-feet, Frd No 30 plays a crucial role in managing flood risks in the area, particularly along the Coal Creek-TR river or stream.

Located in Douglas County, Kansas, Frd No 30 is regulated by the Kansas Department of Agriculture and undergoes regular inspections and enforcement to ensure its effectiveness in flood risk reduction. The dam's low hazard potential and condition assessment of "Not Rated" reflect its overall stability and functionality. While it currently lacks certain emergency preparedness measures such as an Emergency Action Plan, the structure's design and construction by local government agencies highlight its importance in protecting the surrounding community from potential flood events.

As part of the Tulasa District under the US Army Corps of Engineers, Frd No 30 serves as a critical infrastructure for flood management in the region. Its primary purpose of flood risk reduction underscores the significance of water resource and climate management efforts in safeguarding communities and ecosystems against the impacts of extreme weather events. With its history of successful operation and ongoing regulatory oversight, Frd No 30 stands as a testament to the importance of proactive planning and investment in resilient water infrastructure.
