Summary
This Earth dam, standing at a height of 24 feet, serves primarily for recreational purposes, providing a storage capacity of 92 acre-feet and covering a surface area of 5.8 acres. With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment, the dam is currently rated as "Not Rated" in terms of its condition.
Despite lacking certain details such as the year of completion and last inspection date, the dam remains functional with uncontrolled spillway type. While the dam's emergency action plan status, maintenance measures, and risk management strategies are not explicitly outlined, its relatively low hazard potential suggests a stable structure. Water resource and climate enthusiasts may find Ms07084 Lake Dam an intriguing case study in private dam ownership and state regulation in the context of recreational water storage.
Located within the Vicksburg District, Ms07084 Lake Dam is situated at a latitude of 33.26126022 and a longitude of -90.00932509. As water resource and climate enthusiasts explore the dynamics of this dam, its environmental impact, and the regulatory framework surrounding its operation, they can gain valuable insights into the management of small-scale dams for recreational purposes in Mississippi.

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.
