Summary

The dam, primarily used for recreation, is classified as an Earth dam with a height of 27 feet and a storage capacity of 576 acre-feet. The dam's purpose is to provide water storage for recreational activities, with a normal storage capacity of 327 acre-feet and a surface area of 31.5 acres.

Although the hazard potential of the dam is currently undetermined, its condition is not rated, and it has a moderate risk assessment score of 3. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway type and has not been inspected or assessed for emergency preparedness. The risk management measures and emergency action plans for the dam are also not readily available, highlighting the need for further evaluation and potential improvements in safety protocols.

Located within the Vicksburg District, the dam presents an intriguing case study for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the regulatory oversight, risk assessment, and emergency preparedness of dams in the region. With its scenic location and recreational significance, the Ms06750 Lake Dam serves as a focal point for understanding the intersection of human activity, environmental impact, and infrastructure management in the context of water resource management and climate resilience.

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.
