Dd No L-2 is a local government-owned earth dam located in Fort Scott, Kansas, specifically designed for flood risk reduction along Pawnee Creek. Completed in 1998 by Agricultural Eng. Assoc., this dam stands at a height of 25 feet and spans a length of 1175 feet, with a storage capacity of 550.09 acre-feet. Despite its low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, the dam has not been rated for its condition assessment.
The dam is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by the Kansas Department of Agriculture, ensuring its compliance with state jurisdiction and regulations. With a spillway width of 60 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 1680 cubic feet per second, Dd No L-2 serves as a crucial infrastructure for managing water flow and reducing flood risks in the area. Although it has not been updated or inspected since December 1999, the dam continues to play a vital role in safeguarding the surrounding community from potential flooding events.
