Summary
This earth dam stands at a height of 43 feet and has a storage capacity of 280 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 237 acre-feet. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway and covers a surface area of 11.9 acres, providing a scenic and tranquil setting for water resource and climate enthusiasts to enjoy.
Managed by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, this dam is subject to state regulations, permitting, inspection, and enforcement to ensure its safety and functionality. Despite being classified as having an undetermined hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment, the condition of the dam is currently not rated. While the dam has not been modified in recent years, it remains an integral part of the local landscape and offers opportunities for recreational activities such as fishing, boating, and wildlife observation.
With its serene surroundings and vital role in water resource management, Ms06744 Lake Dam stands as a noteworthy site for those interested in exploring the intersection of human infrastructure and natural ecosystems. As efforts continue to monitor and maintain the dam's integrity, it remains a testament to the importance of sustainable water resource practices in mitigating the impacts of climate change on our environment.

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.
