West is a private recreational dam located in Tennessee, specifically in Scott County. It was completed with an earth dam type and stands at a hydraulic height of 18 feet and a structural height of 23 feet. The dam has a length of 470 feet and a maximum storage capacity of 47 acre-feet, with a surface area of 3.7 acres. The spillway type is uncontrolled, and the hazard potential is considered significant.

Despite not being regulated by the state, West poses a moderate risk with a risk assessment rating of 3. The dam has not been rated for its condition, and the last inspection took place in August 2020 with an inspection frequency of 5 years. In case of emergencies, the dam does not have an emergency action plan prepared, and there are no updated inundation maps or risk management measures in place. Overall, West presents an intriguing case study for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in dam safety and management in the region.
