Rcrca 1, located in Redwood Falls, Minnesota, was completed in 2020 by Houston Eng and is regulated by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. This earth dam stands at a height of 14 feet and has a storage capacity of 600 acre-feet. With a drainage area of 1.5 square miles and a surface area of 142 acres, Rcrca 1 serves a primarily local government purpose and is designed to withstand low hazard potential.

Despite its recent completion, Rcrca 1 has not yet been rated for its condition assessment. The dam does not have an Emergency Action Plan in place and has an inspection frequency of 8 years. While it has not been modified in recent years, the dam is equipped with outlet gates and meets state permitting and inspection requirements. In the event of an emergency, the dam's risk management measures and inundation maps have not been prepared or updated.

Overall, Rcrca 1 is a vital infrastructure project for the local community in Redwood Falls, Minnesota, providing water resource management and flood control benefits. As a low-hazard potential structure, it is important for stakeholders to continue monitoring and assessing the condition of the dam to ensure its long-term safety and effectiveness in mitigating potential risks associated with its operation.
