This earthen dam stands at a height of 29 feet and stretches 1700 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 2785 acre-feet. The dam has a spillway width of 357 feet and a maximum discharge of 14,892 cubic feet per second.
The dam is owned and regulated by the local government, with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) overseeing state permitting, inspection, and enforcement. Despite its poor condition assessment, the dam's hazard potential is not available, and a moderate risk rating has been assigned. With a history of modifications in 1957 for hydraulic improvements, the dam features a mix of controlled and uncontrolled outlet gates for water release.
As a critical infrastructure for the region's water supply and recreation activities, the Teague City Lake Dam serves as a vital resource for the community. However, its condition and risk assessment highlight the importance of ongoing maintenance and monitoring to ensure the safety and reliability of the dam for years to come.
