Peeler is a private dam located in McNairy, Tennessee, with a significant hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating. Built in 1960, this earth dam stands at a structural height of 16 feet and a hydraulic height of 13.3 feet, with a length of 306 feet. It has a normal storage capacity of 24 acre-feet and a maximum storage capacity of 38 acre-feet, covering a surface area of 4.6 acres with a drainage area of 0.12 square miles.

Despite its age, Peeler has not been rated for its condition and has not undergone recent risk management measures or emergency action plan updates. The dam is categorized as uncontrolled spillway type with no outlet gates, and it has not been modified in recent years. The last inspection was conducted in January 2017, with an inspection frequency of 5 years. The dam does not fall under the jurisdiction of any state agency and is not regulated or permitted by state authorities.

Located within the Memphis District, Peeler does not have any associated structures or federal agency involvement, and its primary purpose remains unspecified. The dam poses a significant hazard potential due to its condition assessment being not rated, and it lacks essential emergency preparedness measures such as an updated emergency action plan or inundation maps. With a risk assessment rating of moderate, Peeler serves as a reminder of the importance of proactive maintenance and risk management in safeguarding water resources and communities against potential hazards.
