Sunset is a private earth dam located in Spring Creek, Tennessee, within the Nashville District. Completed in 1969, this dam stands at a structural height of 27.7 feet and has a hydraulic height of 24 feet. With a normal storage capacity of 208 acre-feet and a maximum storage capacity of 295 acre-feet, Sunset serves the purpose of regulating Spring Creek's flow and providing flood control for the surrounding area. The dam is state-regulated by the Tennessee Safe Dams Program and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its structural integrity and safety.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Sunset received a moderate risk assessment rating of 3 due to potential risks associated with its location and design. However, the dam is reported to be in satisfactory condition as of the most recent assessment in December 2020. In the event of an emergency, the dam does not have outlet gates and lacks an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) prepared to guide response efforts. While Sunset may pose moderate risks, its current condition and state oversight provide a level of assurance for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the safety and management of this essential infrastructure.
