Fox Dam 2, located in Cherry, Nebraska, is a privately owned earth dam primarily used for irrigation purposes on TR-Minnechaduza Creek. Completed in 1951, this dam stands at a height of 11 feet with a length of 300 feet, providing a storage capacity of 77 acre-feet. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam is in poor condition as per the last inspection conducted in October 2012.

Managed by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources, Fox Dam 2 is subject to state regulation, permitting, inspection, and enforcement. The dam's location in Crookston, Nebraska, within Congressional District 03, is overseen by Representative Adrian Smith. With a drainage area of 1.63 square miles, this dam plays a crucial role in supporting agricultural activities in the region.

While Fox Dam 2 is currently in a state of disrepair, its historical significance and impact on local water resources make it an essential structure for water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor and advocate for maintenance and rehabilitation efforts to ensure the safety and sustainability of the dam for future generations.
