The earth dam, completed in 1970, stands at a height of 7 feet and has a storage capacity of 232 acre-feet. The pond serves multiple purposes, with a primary focus on "Other" uses, and is situated along the TR-Granicus Bayou.
Although the dam has a low hazard potential and is currently rated as "Not Rated" in terms of condition assessment, it poses a moderate risk (3) according to a risk assessment. The spillway, at 2 feet wide, is uncontrolled, and the overall structure has not been inspected recently. Despite the lack of recent data on its condition and inspection, the pond remains a valuable resource for the local community and surrounding environment, providing essential water storage and recreational opportunities.
