Summary
This earth dam stands at 27 feet tall with a hydraulic height of 26 feet and a structural height of 31 feet. It serves various purposes including fire protection, stock or small fish pond, fish and wildlife pond, and flood risk reduction for the surrounding area. The dam has a storage capacity of 89.1 acre-feet and a normal storage of 26.6 acre-feet, with a surface area of 7 acres and a drainage area of 270 square miles.
The dam has a low hazard potential and is classified as having a moderate risk level. It is equipped with an uncontrolled spillway type with a width of 20 feet and uncontrolled outlet gates. The dam is not currently regulated by the state and has not been inspected or assessed for condition. While the dam does not have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place, it meets guidelines for risk management measures. With its strategic location on TR-Locust Creek and the benefits it provides to the community, Upper Locust Creek W-107 is a vital asset for flood risk reduction and water resource management in the area.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
