Summary
This earth dam with a buttress core stands at a height of 15 feet and has a storage capacity of 86 acre-feet. The primary purpose of this dam is for recreation, with a normal storage capacity of 45 acre-feet.
Despite being classified as having an undetermined hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment, the dam's condition is currently not rated. The spillway type is uncontrolled, with a maximum storage capacity of 86 acre-feet and a surface area of 8 acres. While the last inspection date and other critical information are not provided, the dam is subject to state regulation, permitting, inspection, and enforcement.
Water resource and climate enthusiasts may find Ms03912 Lake Dam intriguing due to its recreational significance and the regulatory oversight it receives from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. The dam's design and storage capacity suggest its importance for water management and recreational activities in the region. However, the lack of detailed information on its condition and inspection history raises questions about its long-term safety and maintenance practices, highlighting the importance of regular monitoring and assessment for sustainable water resource management.

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.
