Summary
The dam, classified as an Earth type, stands at a height of 15 feet and has a storage capacity of 76 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 30 acre-feet. It covers a surface area of 5.3 acres and is regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, ensuring that it meets all necessary safety and environmental standards.
Although the hazard potential of the dam is currently undetermined, its condition is not rated, indicating a need for further assessment. The risk assessment deems it as moderate, highlighting the importance of implementing risk management measures to ensure the safety of the surrounding community and environment. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway type and does not have any associated locks or outlets, emphasizing its recreational focus while still warranting careful monitoring and maintenance.
With its picturesque location and recreational opportunities, Ms06753 Lake Dam serves as a vital water resource for the area. Climate and water resource enthusiasts can appreciate the complexities involved in managing and maintaining such structures to balance recreation with safety and environmental considerations. The dam's presence underscores the importance of sustainable water management practices in the face of changing climate patterns and increasing water demands.

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.
