Evers Lake Dam, located in Narrowsburg, Sullivan County, New York, is a privately owned Earth dam completed in 1965 for recreational purposes.
The dam stands at a height of 14 feet and has a length of 560 feet, creating a reservoir with a storage capacity of 55 acre-feet. The dam is situated on the TR-Ten Mile River, with a drainage area of 0.84 square miles and a surface area of 7 acres.
Despite being classified with a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment, Evers Lake Dam is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC). The dam's spillway, an uncontrolled type, has a width of 16 feet, and the structure is not currently rated for its condition. The last inspection was conducted in October 1992, highlighting the need for updated assessments and emergency preparedness plans.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Evers Lake Dam serves as a significant recreational feature in the area, providing opportunities for outdoor activities and water-based recreation. While the dam's risk assessment is moderate, ongoing monitoring and maintenance are essential to ensure the safety and functionality of this important water infrastructure. As climate change impacts continue to affect water resources, understanding and managing the risks associated with dams like Evers Lake Dam is crucial for long-term resilience and sustainability.
