The dam stands at a height of 23 feet and has a storage capacity of 172 acre-feet, providing both flood protection and recreational opportunities in the area. The dam, situated on Greasy Creek in Wayne County, Missouri, covers a surface area of 14 acres and serves a drainage area of 560 square miles.
Despite being designated as a high hazard potential dam, Lake Jeano Dam has not been rated for its current condition. The last inspection took place in August 1979, with no further assessment reported since then. The dam does not have an emergency action plan in place, nor does it meet guidelines for inundation maps or risk management measures. With its strategic location and vital role in flood risk reduction, Lake Jeano Dam serves as a significant feature in the water resource management of the region, requiring timely evaluation and maintenance to ensure its continued safety and effectiveness.
