Rogers Dam, located in Buffalo, Nebraska, serves multiple purposes, including fire protection, stock maintenance, and providing a small fish pond. Completed in 1962, this earth dam stands at 9.1 feet high with a length of 269 feet, containing a storage capacity of 63.8 acre-feet. Its primary source agency is the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources (DNR), indicating state regulation, permitting, inspection, and enforcement are all in place to ensure its safety and functionality.

With a low hazard potential and a condition assessment that is currently not rated, Rogers Dam remains a stable structure in the region. While it may not have a spillway or outlet gates, its presence on the TR-Wood River contributes to the overall water resource management in the area. The dam's location within Congressional District 03, Nebraska, under the oversight of Congressman Adrian Smith, highlights its importance in supporting local communities and ecosystems through its various functions. Overall, Rogers Dam stands as a testament to responsible water management practices and the integration of infrastructure for both human and environmental benefit in the region.
