Myers Pond, also known as Lloyd Myer, is a private water resource located in West Albany, Minnesota. Managed by the USDA NRCS, this earth dam was completed in 1966 for the primary purpose of flood risk reduction along the Spring Creek-TR. With a dam height of 20 feet and a length of 371 feet, Myers Pond has a storage capacity of 45 acre-feet and a drainage area of 0.66 square miles.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, a 2015 inspection revealed poor condition assessment for Myers Pond. The dam's emergency action plan and risk assessment are marked as moderate, indicating a need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance. The dam's uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates present potential risks that warrant attention and mitigation measures to ensure the safety and integrity of the structure. Enthusiasts of water resources and climate in the Wabasha County area should take note of the importance of maintaining Myers Pond for flood risk reduction and environmental conservation efforts.
