Summary
The earth dam stands at a height of 24 feet and has a storage capacity of 191 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 154 acre-feet. The dam is located in Webster County, Mississippi, and is regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality.
The dam features an uncontrolled spillway and poses an undetermined hazard potential with a moderate risk assessment rating. While the condition of the dam is currently not rated, it is subject to state inspections, permitting, and enforcement to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations. The dam does not have a designated dam type but is specifically used for recreation, offering a surface area of 14.5 acres for water activities.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Ms07030 Lake Dam presents an intriguing case study in dam management and recreational water use. Its location in Mississippi, under state jurisdiction, highlights the importance of regulatory oversight in ensuring the safety and functionality of such structures. The dam's modest height and storage capacity make it a valuable asset for local recreation, while its risk assessment and hazard potential underscore the need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance to prevent potential emergencies. Overall, Ms07030 Lake Dam offers a glimpse into the intersection of water management, public safety, and environmental stewardship in the context of dam infrastructure.

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.
