Completed in 1996, this earth dam stands at a height of 29 feet and stretches 800 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 206.5 acre-feet. The dam helps control debris and reduce the risk of flooding in the area, particularly along the Roys Creek-TR river or stream.
With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating, Gs Dd No 4-10 has not been inspected or rated for its current condition. This dam does not have outlet gates or locks and features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 30 feet. While the dam has not been subject to recent regulatory oversight or enforcement, it continues to play a crucial role in managing water resources and mitigating flooding risks in the region. Enthusiasts of water resources and climate will find Gs Dd No 4-10 to be an essential infrastructure for protecting the local community from potential water-related hazards.
