Croops is a private-owned dam located in Luzerne, Pennsylvania, specifically in Hunlock Township. Built in 1958, this earth dam stands at a height of 28 feet and has a length of 250 feet, creating a storage capacity of 45 acre-feet. Situated on the TR Hunlock Creek, Croops serves primarily for recreational purposes and is regulated by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. Despite its age, the dam's condition is deemed satisfactory as of the last inspection in September 2020.

With a hazard potential rated as high, Croops is subject to regular inspections and maintenance to ensure its safety and functionality. The dam has undergone modifications in 2009 to reinforce its foundation and hydraulic components. Although the dam does not have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place, its risk assessment and management measures are yet to be determined. The dam's location and design make it a crucial structure in managing water resources and climate impacts in the region, highlighting the importance of monitoring and maintaining such infrastructure for the safety of surrounding communities and the environment.
