With its storage capacity and location on TR Deadman Creek, the dam plays a significant role in water resource management in the area. Prioritizing its safety and structural integrity through consistent monitoring and maintenance will be essential in ensuring the long-term sustainability and functionality of this critical water infrastructure.
