Standing at 42 feet tall and 2175 feet long, this earth dam plays a key role in managing the 4.12 square miles of drainage area and storing up to 1900 acre-feet of water. Despite its primary purpose being flood risk reduction, it also serves as a recreational area, offering 28 acres of surface area for outdoor activities.
Managed by the local government and regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), the Ne Trib Leon River WS SCS Site 23 Dam has not been rated for condition assessment but is considered to have a high risk potential. Although it lacks a spillway, the dam has one outlet gate and has not experienced any modifications over the years. With no emergency action plan in place, it remains vital for water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor and advocate for the safety and maintenance of this important infrastructure.
