Summary
Managed by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, this earth dam with buttress core design stands at a height of 14 feet and has a storage capacity of 84 acre-feet. While its primary purpose is for recreation, the dam serves as a vital water resource in the area.
Situated in the Mobile District and regulated by the state, Mrs Florine Ulmer Pond Dam has not been rated for its condition assessment. Despite its moderate risk level, with a risk rating of 3, the dam has not undergone an evaluation of its emergency action plan or risk management measures. With its uncontrolled spillway type and lack of associated structures, further inspection and assessment may be necessary to ensure the safety and sustainability of this water resource for climate enthusiasts in the region.
Although the dam has not been modified or inspected recently, its location and purpose make it an important asset for recreational activities and water management. Climate enthusiasts interested in water resource sustainability and climate resilience in Mississippi may find Mrs Florine Ulmer Pond Dam a compelling subject for further study and evaluation to ensure its long-term viability and safety.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
