Located in Bourbon, Kansas, Dd No I-3 is a local government-owned dam regulated by the Kansas Department of Agriculture with a primary purpose of flood risk reduction. Completed in 2002, this earth dam stands at a height of 23 feet and has a storage capacity of 189.2 acre-feet. With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk rating, Dd No I-3 plays a crucial role in managing floodwaters from the Hinton Creek-TR stream.

This dam, designed by AG Engineering Associates, has not been rated for its condition assessment and has not undergone any recent inspections. With a spillway width of 40 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 377 cubic feet per second, Dd No I-3 is equipped to handle moderate flooding events. While it has not been modified in recent years, the dam serves as a vital infrastructure for flood control in the area.

Despite its low hazard potential, the ongoing monitoring and maintenance of Dd No I-3 are essential to ensure its effectiveness in flood risk reduction. As a key component of the local flood control system, this dam provides critical protection to the surrounding community and helps to mitigate the impact of extreme weather events on the region's water resources and climate.
