Summary
This earth dam, primarily built for recreation, stands at a height of 10.5 feet and spans a length of 1588 feet along the Unt of Bogue Chitto river. With a storage capacity of 250 acre-feet and a surface area of 29 acres, the dam serves as a recreational hotspot in the Noxubee County of Mississippi.
Despite its moderate hazard potential and undetermined condition assessment, Levi Lee Number 4 Dam remains a popular spot for outdoor enthusiasts and climate advocates interested in water resource management. The dam, with its uncontrolled spillway and drainage area of 0.53 square miles, offers opportunities for boating, fishing, and other water-based activities. Located within the Mobile District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, this dam plays a crucial role in water storage and management in the region.
The dam's risk management measures and emergency preparedness are vital aspects to consider, especially given the potential impact of climate change on water resources. With its location in a picturesque setting along the river, Levi Lee Number 4 Dam presents a unique blend of recreational opportunities and environmental considerations, making it an intriguing site for water resource and climate enthusiasts to explore and study.

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.
