Lineweber Dam 6959, located in Gage County, Nebraska, is a privately owned earth dam completed in 1995 for multiple purposes including fire protection, stock, small fish pond, and recreation. The dam stands at 20 feet high and stretches 300 feet in length, with a normal storage capacity of 68.1 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 83.2 acre-feet. Situated on the TR-Big Blue River, the dam serves as a crucial water resource in the area.
Despite its low hazard potential, Lineweber Dam 6959 is currently assessed as being in poor condition as of April 2018. Regular inspections are conducted every 5 years to ensure its structural integrity and safety. The dam, owned by a private entity, is regulated and permitted by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources, with state jurisdiction and enforcement in place. With its significant role in fire protection and water storage, maintaining the dam's functionality and structural stability is vital for water resource management and climate resilience in the region.
