Standing at a height of 36 feet and stretching 560 feet in length, the dam holds a storage capacity of 35 acre-feet on the Floyds Fork river. Despite its low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, the dam has not been rated for its condition as of the last inspection in 2004.
Managed by the Kentucky Division of Water, Logan Lake Dam is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by state authorities to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations. While it has not undergone modifications or had an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) prepared, the dam is equipped with an uncontrolled spillway and is situated in a scenic area with a surface area of 5.8 acres for recreational activities. With its location in the Louisville District and close proximity to Seatonville, the dam serves as both a structural and natural attraction for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the management and conservation of water resources in Kentucky.
