Summary
Built in 1965, this dam serves primarily for irrigation purposes, providing water storage of 6.3 acre-feet and covering a surface area of 6.3 acres. With a hydraulic height of 11 feet, the dam stands at a structural height of 11 feet and spans 100 feet in length.
Managed by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality's Dam Safety Program, the Brook Valley Country Club Dam is regularly inspected to ensure its safety and integrity. The dam has a high hazard potential, but its current condition is assessed as fair. The last inspection in January 2021 revealed that the structure meets regulatory standards, although there are no emergency action plans in place.
Despite being categorized as an "Other" dam type, the Brook Valley Country Club Dam continues to play a vital role in supporting agricultural irrigation and recreational activities in the area. As climate change impacts water resources, the maintenance and regulation of dams like this one become increasingly crucial to ensure both water supply security and public safety.

Dam Data Reference
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.
