Georges Dam, located in Richardson, Nebraska, along the TR-MISSOURI RIVER, was completed in 2000 with a primary purpose of flood risk reduction. This privately owned Earth dam stands at a height of 41.1 feet and spans 380 feet in length. With a normal storage capacity of 15.9 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 46.3 acre-feet, it serves as a critical infrastructure in managing water resources in the region.

Managed by the NE DNR and regulated by the state of Nebraska, Georges Dam has a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its condition as of the last inspection in 2015. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam is equipped with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement measures to ensure its structural integrity and operational efficiency. The dam's location and design make it a key component in the overall water resource management strategy for flood control in the area.

Georges Dam's role in flood risk reduction and water resource management in Nebraska highlights the importance of infrastructure in mitigating natural disasters and ensuring the safety of communities and ecosystems. As climate change continues to impact weather patterns and water availability, dams like Georges play a crucial role in adapting to and mitigating the effects of a changing climate on water resources and the environment.
