Built in 1958, this dam on TR East Creek serves a dual purpose of water supply and other functions. With a height of 10 feet and a storage capacity of 64 acre-feet, this low hazard potential structure covers an area of 12 acres and drains a watershed of 2,116 acres.
Despite being privately owned and not regulated by the state, Mononame 683 remains an important component of the local water resource infrastructure. Its condition is currently not rated, and there is no emergency action plan in place. The dam has not been modified in recent years, and it lacks certain features such as spillways and outlet gates. Despite these limitations, the dam continues to provide valuable water storage and supply benefits to the surrounding community.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Mononame 683 serves as a prime example of a privately owned dam playing a crucial role in water management. Its construction in the late 1950s reflects the historical importance of such structures in meeting the water supply needs of growing communities. As the owner and operator, continued monitoring and maintenance of Mononame 683 will be essential to ensure its long-term functionality and contribution to sustainable water resource management in the region.
