Completed in 1998, this dam stands at a height of 29 feet and has a hydraulic height of 37 feet, providing a storage capacity of 75 acre-feet. Despite its low hazard potential and fair condition assessment, the dam poses a high risk due to its location on an unnamed tributary of Tanners Creek.
Managed by the local government, the Industrial Park Dam is regulated by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its safety and functionality. With a drainage area of 0.15 square miles and a maximum discharge of 280 cubic feet per second, this dam plays a crucial role in controlling water flow and preventing flooding in the surrounding area. Water resource and climate enthusiasts can appreciate the significance of this structure in maintaining the ecological balance of the region.
