Summary
Standing at a height of 30 feet, the dam has a storage capacity of 144 acre-feet and is classified as having a low hazard potential. The dam is regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its safety and compliance with state regulations.
Despite its moderate risk assessment rating, the dam's condition is currently not rated, and there is no emergency action plan in place. The spillway type is uncontrolled, indicating that in the event of excess water flow, there may be potential risks associated with flooding downstream. The dam is not under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers and does not have any associated structures or locks.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Ms No Name 219 Dam presents an interesting case study in dam management and safety. With its unique design and purpose for recreation, this privately owned dam showcases the importance of regular inspections, risk assessments, and emergency preparedness in ensuring the safety of water infrastructure in Mississippi. As the dam continues to be regulated by state authorities and monitored for any potential hazards, it serves as a reminder of the vital role that dams play in water resource management and the need for proactive risk management measures.

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.
