Summary
With a height of 26 feet and a storage capacity of 209 acre-feet, this dam serves the important function of providing water resources for the surrounding area. Situated on TR-Carroll Creek, it covers a surface area of 15 acres and has a drainage area of 95 square miles.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Westfall Truck INC Lake Dam has not been rated for its condition assessment. The dam has not undergone recent inspections, and there is no Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place. While it meets the guidelines of the Federal agency, it lacks certain critical safety measures such as inundation maps and risk management measures. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, this dam presents an interesting case study in the need for comprehensive monitoring and upkeep of critical infrastructure.
In the event of any emergency or extreme weather conditions, the lack of a fully prepared EAP and updated emergency contacts could pose a risk to the surrounding community. With its close proximity to residential areas and the potential impact on water resources, it is crucial for authorities to prioritize the assessment and maintenance of Westfall Truck INC Lake Dam to ensure the safety and security of all those who rely on its functions.

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.
