Ziebell Dam, located in Furnas, Nebraska, was completed in 1952 and is owned by the local government. Designed by USDA NRCS, this earth dam stands at a height of 28 feet and has a length of 570 feet, providing storage for fire protection, stock, and small fish pond purposes. With a storage capacity of 376 acre-feet and a surface area of 37 acres, the dam plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the area.

Managed by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources, Ziebell Dam is regularly inspected to ensure its structural integrity and safety. Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the dam is currently assessed as being in poor condition as of August 2019. The surrounding area, including the TR-DRY CREEK, benefits from the water storage and regulation provided by Ziebell Dam, contributing to the overall water resource management and climate resilience efforts in the region.

As a key component of the local water infrastructure, Ziebell Dam plays a vital role in protecting the community from the impacts of drought, providing water for livestock, firefighting, and recreational purposes. Its location in Edison, Nebraska, and its association with the Omaha District highlight the collaborative efforts between local and federal agencies in managing water resources and ensuring the safety and sustainability of the dam for future generations of water resource and climate enthusiasts.
