Dd No I-2 is a local government-owned dam in Bourbon, Kansas, designed by AG Engineering Associates to reduce flood risks in the area. The dam, with a height of 25 feet, serves as a crucial structure for flood risk reduction, with a storage capacity of 439.5 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 32.6 acre-feet. Located in the Tulsa District, the dam has a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its condition assessment.
Despite its low hazard potential, Dd No I-2 is regulated by the Kansas Department of Agriculture and undergoes state inspections, permitting, and enforcement. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 50 feet and is situated in a location with a moderate risk assessment. While the dam has not been modified in recent years and lacks certain emergency preparedness measures, it continues to play a critical role in managing flood risks for the surrounding community.
With its primary purpose being flood risk reduction, Dd No I-2 stands as an essential infrastructure in safeguarding against potential inundation events. As a locally-owned dam with state regulatory oversight, the structure serves as a testament to the collaborative efforts between government agencies and engineering firms in ensuring water resource management and climate resilience in the region.
