Maurice Kremer Dam, located in Hamilton County, Nebraska, is a privately owned earth dam primarily used for irrigation purposes. Built in 1985 by the USDA NRCS, this dam stands at a height of 13 feet and has a structural height of 16 feet, with a length of 450 feet. It has a storage capacity of 78 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 27 acre-feet, covering a surface area of 8 acres.

The dam is regulated by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular inspections every five years. However, the dam's condition assessment in 2016 revealed a poor rating, indicating the need for maintenance and repairs. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's condition raises concerns about its long-term stability and effectiveness in managing water resources in the area.

With a drainage area of 0.9 square miles and a maximum discharge capacity of 789 cubic feet per second, Maurice Kremer Dam plays a crucial role in water management along TR-Beaver Creek. As climate change continues to impact water resources, ensuring the safety and functionality of dams like Maurice Kremer Dam is essential for sustainable water management in Nebraska.
