This earth dam, with a height of 8 feet and a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet, serves primarily for recreation purposes, including fire protection and stock or small fish pond activities. The dam is located in Evesham Township and spans the Barton Run-TR river or stream.
Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's condition assessment in 2011 rated it as poor, indicating a need for maintenance or rehabilitation. The last inspection date was in December 2011, with a recommended inspection frequency of every 4 years. With no record of major modifications or emergency action plans, there may be a need for updated risk assessments and management measures to ensure the dam's safety and functionality in the face of potential climate impacts.
While Kenilworth #2 Dam provides recreational benefits to the local community, its aging infrastructure and poor condition highlight the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance efforts. Water resource and climate enthusiasts may find interest in the dam's historical significance and potential challenges in adapting to changing environmental conditions to ensure its continued safe operation.
