Completed in 1974, this earth dam primarily serves the purpose of recreation, offering a serene and picturesque setting for outdoor enthusiasts. With a storage capacity of 104 acre-feet and a surface area of 14 acres, the dam provides ample opportunities for water-based activities and wildlife habitat.
Despite its recreational appeal, Hauck Lake Dam holds a high hazard potential, warranting attention to ensure its structural integrity and safety. The dam's spillway, with a width of 20 feet, is uncontrolled, presenting a potential risk during periods of high discharge. While the dam's condition is currently not rated, ongoing inspections and maintenance are essential to mitigate any potential risks associated with its operation and longevity.
With its moderate risk assessment and location under the St. Louis District, Hauck Lake Dam remains an important landmark in the region, overseen by private ownership. While not regulated at the state level, the dam's significance in providing recreational opportunities underscores the need for continued monitoring and management to safeguard both the environment and the community's enjoyment of this valuable water resource.
