Completed in 1963, this dam stands at a height of 35 feet and has a hydraulic height of 31 feet, with a length of 770 feet. It has a maximum storage capacity of 410 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 124 acre-feet, serving the TR-Sugar Creek watershed.
Despite its low hazard potential, this dam is deemed to have a very high risk due to its outdated inspection data and lack of risk assessment or management measures. It is equipped with a controlled spillway and one valve outlet gate. While the dam has not been rated for condition assessment, it is subject to regular inspections with a frequency of every 5 years. The surrounding area is at risk of inundation in the event of a breach, emphasizing the need for updated emergency action plans and risk mitigation strategies to safeguard the nearby community of Lookeba and the downstream water resources.
