Luther #2 is a private earth dam located in Dickson, Tennessee, near the city of Craggie Hope. Built in 1950, this dam stands at a structural height of 22 feet and has a hydraulic height of 18.1 feet, impounding the waters of Tribnails Creek. With a normal storage capacity of 83 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 115 acre-feet, this dam covers a surface area of 10 acres and drains a watershed of 0.43 square miles.
Despite being categorized as having low hazard potential and a moderate risk level, Luther #2 has not been rated for its condition assessment as of the last inspection in November 2020. The dam is equipped with an uncontrolled spillway and has no outlet gates or locks associated with it. With no state regulation or enforcement, Luther #2 falls under the jurisdiction of private ownership and is not subject to permitting or inspection by Tennessee authorities. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, this dam serves as a unique case study of a privately-owned structure with historical significance in the region.
