Smith is a privately-owned dam located in Cumberland, Tennessee, along the Burnt Cabin Branch river. Built in 1972, this earth dam serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock, small fish pond, and recreation. With a hydraulic height of 18.9 feet and a structural height of 21.5 feet, Smith has a normal storage capacity of 56 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 76 acre-feet over a surface area of 7.4 acres.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment, Smith has not been rated for its condition assessment. The dam does not have any outlet gates and features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 0 feet. The last inspection date took place in August 2017, with an inspection frequency of every 5 years. While the dam is not under state regulation, it is not permitted, inspected, or enforced by state agencies.

Smith's location within the Nashville District and its association with the primary purpose of fire protection make it a noteworthy structure for water resource and climate enthusiasts. The dam's moderate risk assessment and lack of state regulation highlight the importance of monitoring and maintaining such infrastructure to ensure the safety and sustainability of water resources in the area.
