Summary
Managed by the USDA NRCS, this private dam on the TR- WARRIOR CREEK is of the Earth type with a buttress core and soil foundation, standing at a height of 10 feet. With a storage capacity of 70 acre-feet, the dam has a low hazard potential and is currently not rated for its condition.
Despite its recreational focus, Earl Davis Pond Dam is regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and undergoes state permitting, inspection, and enforcement processes. The dam's spillway is uncontrolled, and it is not equipped with outlet gates or locks. While the structure has not been assessed for its condition, it has a moderate risk level assigned. As it continues to serve its purpose in providing recreational opportunities, the dam remains a key feature in the local water resource management landscape.
Water resource and climate enthusiasts will find Earl Davis Pond Dam an intriguing site for its combination of recreational usage and regulatory oversight. Situated in a picturesque location along TR- WARRIOR CREEK, this dam symbolizes the delicate balance between human activities and environmental monitoring. As discussions around water management and climate change intensify, the management and maintenance of Earl Davis Pond Dam will undoubtedly be a focal point for stakeholders interested in sustainable water resource practices.

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.
