1 is a privately owned earth dam located in West Quincy, Missouri, along the Tr- Tipp Creek. Built in 1997, this dam stands at a height of 35 feet and serves the primary purpose of grade stabilization. With a maximum storage capacity of 15 acre-feet and a drainage area of 0.03 square miles, the dam plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the area.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the dam is subject to moderate risk due to its condition assessment being labeled as "Not Available." It features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 13 feet and no outlet gates. While the dam has not been inspected recently, its risk management measures and emergency action plan status are also listed as unavailable.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Timber Unlimited No. 1 presents an intriguing case study in dam infrastructure and risk management. Its location in the Kansas City District and connection to Congressional District 06, Missouri, highlights the intersection of federal and state oversight in ensuring the safety and functionality of vital water structures like this one.
