Summary
Built in 1965 by the USDA NRCS, this privately-owned earth dam serves as a vital structure for the local community. The dam's primary purpose is recreation, offering a peaceful retreat for water resource and climate enthusiasts to enjoy the tranquility of Kenlawha Creek.
Managed by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, Country Club Lake Ms02448 Dam boasts a low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment. Despite not being currently rated for its condition, the dam continues to provide essential services for the area. With a storage capacity of 110 acre-feet and uncontrolled spillways, this structure is a crucial component of the local water resource infrastructure.
As water resources become increasingly critical in the face of climate change, Country Club Lake Ms02448 Dam serves as a reminder of the importance of sustainable water management practices. Its role in providing recreational opportunities while maintaining safety and functionality highlights the need for ongoing inspection and maintenance to ensure the dam's continued effectiveness in the face of evolving environmental challenges.

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.
