Summary
This Earth dam, completed in 1958, stands at a height of 14 feet and serves primarily for recreational purposes. The lake has a storage capacity of 55 acre-feet and is situated along Mulberry Creek in Madison County. With a low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, T Bar P Lake offers a tranquil environment for water and climate enthusiasts to enjoy.
Despite being a privately owned structure, T Bar P Lake provides a serene setting for outdoor activities such as fishing, boating, and wildlife observation. The uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates ensure proper water management, while the surrounding area offers ample opportunities for nature exploration and relaxation. With its moderate risk assessment, this man-made lake remains a safe and enjoyable destination for those seeking to connect with nature and appreciate the importance of water resources in a changing climate.
As part of the Vicksburg District, T Bar P Lake stands as a testament to responsible water resource management and the role of dams in supporting recreational activities. While not regulated by the state, the lake maintains a low hazard potential and has not been subject to formal condition assessments. Despite its uncontrolled spillway and lack of inspection frequency, T Bar P Lake remains a beloved destination for outdoor enthusiasts seeking to immerse themselves in the beauty of Mississippi's waterways and natural landscapes.

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.
