Built in 1974, this dam serves primarily for recreational purposes, with a storage capacity of 107 acre-feet and a normal storage of 10 acre-feet. The dam has a height of 10 feet and a surface area of 20 acres, providing a picturesque setting for outdoor activities such as fishing, boating, and wildlife viewing.
Despite its low hazard potential, Mononame 572 has not been rated for its condition assessment, and there is no information available on its emergency action plan or risk management measures. The dam is not regulated by the state and does not require permitting, inspection, or enforcement. The St. Louis District of the US Army Corps of Engineers oversees its operations, though no federal funding or agency ownership is associated with the structure.
Enthusiasts of water resources and climate in the Ralls County area may find Mononame 572 to be a hidden gem for recreational opportunities and nature appreciation. Its tranquil waters and surrounding landscape offer a peaceful escape for visitors seeking to connect with the outdoors. While the dam's condition assessment and emergency preparedness are areas for improvement, its historical significance and ecological value make it a valuable asset for the community and a potential focus for future conservation efforts.
