Managed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, this earth-type dam serves primarily for recreational purposes. The dam stands at a hydraulic height of 33 feet and a structural height of 18 feet, with a total length of 200 feet. It has a storage capacity of 30 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 4 acres, serving as a vital water resource in the College Branch watershed.
The dam, regulated by the NC Department of Environmental Quality's Dam Safety Program, has a high hazard potential but is currently assessed to be in fair condition. The last inspection in December 2019 highlighted the need for periodic assessments due to its risk profile. With a moderate risk rating, there is a focus on ensuring that the dam meets safety guidelines and has appropriate emergency action plans in place. As a key feature in the local landscape, Revelles Pond Dam Upper plays a crucial role in both water resource management and climate resiliency efforts in the region.
