Completed in 1963, this earth dam stands at a height of 23 feet and spans 343 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 83 acre-feet. Situated on TR-RED CREEK, the dam serves primarily for recreational purposes, offering a serene environment for water resource and climate enthusiasts to enjoy.
Managed by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC), Mt. Miles INC. Dam has a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating. The spillway, an uncontrolled type with a width of 80 feet, helps regulate water flow and prevent flooding in the area. While its condition assessment is currently not rated, the dam has undergone regulatory inspections by the state, ensuring its safe operation and maintenance.
With its scenic surroundings and emphasis on recreation, Mt. Miles INC. Dam provides a valuable water resource for the community. As a privately owned structure, it offers a unique opportunity for visitors to appreciate the intersection of nature, engineering, and climate considerations.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
