This earth dam stands at a height of 27 feet with a structural height of 29 feet, spanning 490 feet in length and providing a storage capacity of 255.4 acre-feet. With a primary purpose of flood risk reduction, the dam also supports fire protection, stock, small fish pond, and fish and wildlife pond purposes.
Situated on the TR-East Locust Creek, this dam has a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating. The uncontrolled spillway with a width of 30 feet ensures efficient water discharge, and the dam's condition is currently not rated. While no emergency action plan (EAP) has been prepared for the dam, it meets regulatory guidelines and is inspected periodically. The surrounding area benefits from the dam's presence, contributing to water resource management and climate resilience efforts in Sullivan County, Missouri.
