Schouweiler-Speedling, located in Kellogg, Minnesota, is a private earth dam built in 1975 by the USDA NRCS, with a primary purpose of fire protection, stock, or small fish pond. The dam, standing at 32 feet tall and 300 feet long, holds a storage capacity of 40.9 acre-feet and serves as a crucial water resource along the Zumbro River. The dam, regulated by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, plays a vital role in maintaining water levels for various purposes while also providing a habitat for aquatic life.

With its historical significance and ongoing importance in water resource management, Schouweiler-Speedling serves as a testament to the intersection of human ingenuity and environmental stewardship in maintaining a sustainable water supply in the region.
