Terrace Lake Dam, located in Kansas City, Missouri, was completed in 1964 and serves as a recreational water resource for the community. The dam, standing at 25 feet tall with a storage capacity of 67 acre-feet, is primarily used for leisure activities and provides a serene setting for visitors to enjoy. Situated on the TR-BLUE RIVER, the dam offers a surface area of 5 acres and drains an area of 90 acres, making it a valuable asset for both water enthusiasts and nature lovers.

Despite its recreational appeal, Terrace Lake Dam poses a high hazard potential due to its condition assessment being marked as "Not Rated" and lacking any recent inspections since 1978. The dam is privately owned and not regulated by the state, raising concerns about its safety and maintenance practices. With emergency action plans and risk assessments missing, there are uncertainties surrounding the dam's ability to withstand potential disasters or floods in the future. As climate change continues to impact water resources, it is imperative for stakeholders to prioritize the safety and upkeep of Terrace Lake Dam to ensure the well-being of the surrounding community and environment.
