The dam does not have a spillway and no outlet gates, posing challenges in managing potential overflow events. The surrounding area covers 16.2 acres, providing an essential water resource for the region.
In the event of an emergency, it is crucial for stakeholders to have an updated emergency action plan in place to mitigate risks and ensure community safety. With its unique design and location, Rgs Dam Pond E2 stands as a testament to the importance of proper water resource management and climate resilience in the face of changing environmental conditions.
