Summary
With a height of 36 feet and a storage capacity of 113 acre-feet, this earth dam overlooks a serene surface area of 5.5 acres. Managed by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, the dam is regulated, inspected, and enforced by the state authorities to ensure its safety and compliance with environmental standards.
While the hazard potential of the dam is currently undetermined and its condition is not yet rated, a moderate risk assessment of level 3 has been assigned to it. Despite lacking details on its construction year and last inspection date, the dam's emergency action plan status, inundation maps, and risk management measures are all pending updates. Additionally, the spillway type is marked as uncontrolled, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance to mitigate potential risks and ensure the safety of the surrounding areas.
Enthusiasts interested in water resources and climate will find Ms06732 Lake Dam a fascinating subject for further exploration and study. Its location, design features, and regulatory oversight provide valuable insights into the management of water infrastructure in Mississippi, showcasing the importance of maintaining and monitoring dams for both recreational and safety purposes in the face of changing environmental conditions.

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.
