Standing at a height of 15 feet, this dam boasts a storage capacity of 74 acre-feet and a surface area of 8 acres. Despite its uncontrolled spillway and moderate hazard potential, the dam's condition assessment remains unrated.
Managed by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, the dam is subject to state regulation, inspection, and enforcement. Located in the Mobile District, the dam has not been modified in recent years and lacks emergency action preparedness measures. With a risk assessment rating of moderate, there is a potential for improved risk management measures to be implemented in the future to ensure the safety and integrity of the dam. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Ms06058 Lake Dam presents an intriguing case study in dam management and risk assessment.
