Dd No 202, located in Lyon County, Kansas, is a local government-owned earth dam completed in 1982 for flood risk reduction on Bluff Creek. With a height of 27 feet and a length of 900 feet, this dam provides a storage capacity of 310.2 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 8.4 acres. The dam is regulated by the Kansas Department of Agriculture and undergoes regular inspections, with a low hazard potential rating.

Despite its moderate risk assessment, Dd No 202 has not been rated for its condition assessment and lacks an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) as well as inundation maps. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 80 feet and no outlet gates. With a primary purpose of flood risk reduction, this dam plays a crucial role in protecting the surrounding area from potential flooding events. Overall, Dd No 202 serves as an important infrastructure asset for water resource management in the region, warranting continued monitoring and maintenance efforts to ensure its effectiveness in safeguarding the community.
