Frd No 26, also known as Wakarusa Watershed Dist 35 Frd 26, is a critical earth dam located in Eudora, Kansas, designed by A&E, COOK FLATT AND STROBEL in 1976. This dam, standing at a height of 47 feet, serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction in the Chickamauga Creek watershed. With a storage capacity of 2290 acre-feet and a drainage area of 4.38 square miles, Frd No 26 plays a crucial role in mitigating the risk of flooding in the region.
The dam's spillway, with a width of 160 feet, is of the uncontrolled type, capable of handling a maximum discharge of 4570 cubic feet per second. Despite being classified as having a high hazard potential, the dam is currently in fair condition as of its last inspection in March 2018. While the risk assessment for Frd No 26 indicates a moderate level of risk, with a DSAC assigned date yet to be determined, the dam's emergency action plan and risk management measures are not well-documented. Water resource and climate enthusiasts in the area may find Frd No 26 to be an intriguing structure worth further exploration and study.
