Standing at a height of 22 feet, the dam has a storage capacity of 118 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 10 acres. Completed in 1978, the dam has not been inspected since July 1980, and its condition is currently rated as "Not Rated" with a high hazard potential.
Despite being a privately owned structure, Something Green B Dam falls under the jurisdiction of the state of Missouri and is not regulated, permitted, inspected, or enforced by any state agency. The dam's purpose is solely for recreation, with no associated locks or spillways. With a drainage area of 600 acres, the dam poses a high hazard potential, although its risk assessment, emergency action plan, and inundation maps are all currently unavailable. Given its age and lack of recent inspection, it is crucial for the owners and relevant authorities to ensure the safety and integrity of Something Green B Dam to mitigate any potential risks to the surrounding community and environment.
