Indian Creek 9-B is a local government-owned dam in Gage, Nebraska, designed by the USDA NRCS with a primary purpose of flood risk reduction. Completed in 1958, this earth dam stands at 26 feet high and stretches 744 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet. Situated on the TR-TOWN CREEK, it plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the area, with a drainage area of 0.4 square miles and the ability to discharge up to 708 cubic feet per second.
Managed by the NE DNR, Indian Creek 9-B is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by the state to ensure its safety and functionality. Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, its condition is assessed as fair, with the last inspection conducted in June 2020. With an emergency action plan yet to be prepared, the dam remains a key infrastructure for flood control in the region, highlighting the importance of water resource management and climate resilience in the face of changing environmental conditions.
