Greenburg Dam, also known as Kent Earthen Dam, is a private-owned structure located in Dutchess, New York.
Completed in 1965, this earth-type dam serves primarily for recreational purposes, with a height of 16 feet and a length of 300 feet. It has a storage capacity of 15.3 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 9.8 acre-feet and a surface area of 3.7 acres.
Despite its recreational focus, Greenburg Dam poses a significant hazard potential with a poor condition assessment as of May 2018. The dam is regulated by the NYS DEC and undergoes regular inspections, with the last one conducted in June 2020. The dam's spillway is uncontrolled, and it is situated on a tributary to the Little Wappingers Creek.
With a moderate risk level assigned to it, Greenburg Dam presents an interesting case study for water resource and climate enthusiasts. As efforts continue to manage and maintain the dam, there is a need for ongoing risk assessment and management measures to ensure the safety and stability of this recreational structure in New York.
