Pollard Dam, located in Dodge County, Nebraska, was completed in 1969 by the USDA NRCS and serves as a vital structure for flood risk reduction along the TR-Platte River. This private dam, with a height of 27 feet and a length of 380 feet, provides a storage capacity of 63 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 3 acres. Despite its low hazard potential and satisfactory condition assessment, the dam is regulated by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its structural integrity and safety.

Owned by a private entity, Pollard Dam falls under the jurisdiction of the Nebraska DNR and is subject to state permitting, inspection, and enforcement. Its primary purpose, aside from flood risk reduction, is categorized as "Other," highlighting its multifunctional role in water resource management in the area. With a maximum discharge of 199 cubic feet per second and a drainage area of 0.7 square miles, the dam plays a crucial role in mitigating flood events and regulating water flow in the region.

The condition assessment conducted in 2017 deemed Pollard Dam to be in satisfactory condition, with a designated emergency action plan (EAP) in place. While the dam has a low hazard potential, efforts are made to ensure it meets safety guidelines and risk management measures. With its strategic location and vital role in water resource management, Pollard Dam stands as a testament to the importance of infrastructure in safeguarding communities against the impacts of climate change and water-related hazards.
