Williams is a private dam located in Pinson, Tennessee, along Cypress Creek. Built in 1974, this earth dam stands at a structural height of 15.3 feet and has a hydraulic height of 11.9 feet. With a storage capacity of 66 acre-feet and a drainage area of 0.11 square miles, Williams serves a crucial role in managing water resources in the region.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Williams is deemed to have a moderate risk level. The dam has not been rated for its condition assessment, and its last inspection was conducted in June 2016. While it lacks certain regulatory features like an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) and updated emergency contacts, the dam continues to play a significant role in water management in Chester County.

Williams is an essential structure in the Nashville District, providing flood control along Cypress Creek. With its uncontrolled spillway and moderate risk assessment, this dam underscores the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure the safety and efficiency of water resources in the area. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Williams serves as a focal point for understanding the intersection of infrastructure, risk management, and environmental stewardship in Tennessee.
