Summary

With a dam height of 21 feet and a storage capacity of 99 acre-feet, this structure offers a picturesque surface area of 7 acres for water enthusiasts to enjoy. The dam is regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and has a low hazard potential, making it a safe and popular destination for outdoor activities.

Located in Pearl River County, Mississippi, this dam is part of the Mobile District and is not under the jurisdiction of any federal agency. Despite its moderate risk assessment, the dam has not been rated for its condition, indicating a need for further assessment and potential maintenance. With uncontrolled spillways and no associated structures, Ms03933 Lake Dam provides an opportunity for visitors to appreciate the beauty of nature while also being mindful of the potential risks associated with its operation.

Although the dam's emergency action plan status and risk management measures are not specified, its status as a privately owned recreational facility highlights the importance of responsible stewardship and maintenance. As climate change continues to impact water resources and infrastructure, enthusiasts and stakeholders are encouraged to stay informed about the condition and regulation of dams like Ms03933 Lake Dam to ensure their safety and longevity for future generations to enjoy.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
