Built in 1960 by the USDA NRCS, this dam stands at a height of 28 feet and spans 1670 feet in length. With a storage capacity of 779 acre-feet and a controlled spillway type, it serves to protect the surrounding area from potential flooding events.
Despite being classified as a low hazard potential structure, SCS-Bear-Fall & Coon Creek Site-009 is deemed to have a very high risk due to its location and the drainage area it serves. The dam has not been rated for its condition assessment, and its last inspection dates back to January 1980. While it has a valve outlet gate for water release, the emergency action plan (EAP) status and risk management measures for this site remain unknown. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, monitoring and assessing the condition of this dam is crucial to ensure the safety and protection of the community it serves.
