This earth dam serves primarily for recreational purposes, with a storage capacity of 64 acre-feet. Standing at a height of 12 feet, it features a buttress core type and an uncontrolled spillway.
Despite being classified with an undetermined hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment, the dam's condition has not been rated. It has not undergone recent inspections, and emergency action plans are not readily available. The structure does not fall under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers, and its risk management measures remain unspecified.
Water resource and climate enthusiasts may find Monique Pond Dam an intriguing subject for further study due to its unique design features and lack of comprehensive assessment data. The dam's location in a recreational area adds to its appeal, prompting interest in potential environmental impacts and the need for additional safety measures to mitigate any potential risks associated with its operation.
