Peoples is a private recreational dam located in McNairy, Tennessee, along the TRIBSNAKE CREEK. The dam, primarily utilized for recreational purposes, is of Earth type with a hydraulic height of 16 feet and a structural height of 20 feet. It has a normal storage capacity of 32 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 56 acre-feet, with a surface area of 5 acres and a drainage area of 0.23 square miles.

Despite its recreational focus, Peoples poses a significant hazard potential with a moderate risk assessment rating. The dam has not been rated for its condition, and the last inspection took place in August 2016, with a scheduled inspection frequency of 5 years. In case of an emergency, there is no Emergency Action Plan (EAP) prepared, and the dam does not meet certain guidelines for risk management measures.

With its unique location and design, Peoples serves as a key recreational spot in Tennessee but also presents potential risks that need to be addressed. Water resource and climate enthusiasts can find interest in studying the dam's impact on the surrounding environment and the need for proper maintenance and emergency preparedness to ensure the safety of the area.
