Summary
The dam, standing at 16 feet in height, has a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet and a surface area of 10 acres. It is classified as an earth dam with a buttress core type and an uncontrolled spillway.
Although the dam is deemed to have a low hazard potential, it is under state jurisdiction and regulation by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. The structure has not been rated for its condition assessment, and there is no information available on its last inspection date or emergency action plan status. Despite its moderate risk assessment level, the dam remains an important feature for recreational activities in the area.
In the absence of specific data on construction completion or modifications, the current state of Ms04350 Lake Dam underscores the need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure its safety and continued function. With its picturesque location and potential for outdoor enjoyment, this dam serves as a valuable resource for water enthusiasts and climate advocates interested in sustainable water management practices in Mississippi.

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.
