This private earth dam, primarily used for recreation, holds a storage capacity of 70 acre-feet with a normal storage level of 56 acre-feet. The dam spans a length of 800 feet and is situated on Turkey Creek, managed by the Fort Worth District of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Despite lacking a spillway, the dam has not been rated for condition assessment and is deemed to have a high risk potential. It is classified as having a hazard potential that is not available, indicating a need for further evaluation and potentially enhanced risk management measures. With no state enforcement and limited regulatory oversight, the dam's safety and maintenance protocols are crucial for the surrounding community and environmental preservation.
Though the dam is not federally owned or funded, its importance in providing recreational opportunities and water resource management for the region cannot be understated. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, staying informed about the state of Kline Lake Dam and advocating for its proper maintenance will be essential in ensuring the safety and sustainability of this vital infrastructure.
