Completed in 1967, this local government-owned dam serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction along the Dry Fork Armstrong Creek. With a height of 42 feet and a length of 2600 feet, it boasts a storage capacity of 1550 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 22 acres, providing essential irrigation support to the surrounding area.
The dam, constructed as an earth structure with buttress core types, is regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and undergoes regular inspections to ensure safety and compliance. While not equipped with a spillway, it features one outlet gate for water control. Despite its high hazard potential, the dam's condition assessment remains unrated, with risk management measures yet to be fully detailed. As it continues to play a crucial role in mitigating flood risks and supporting irrigation efforts, the Ne Trib Leon River WS SCS Site 4 Dam stands as a vital infrastructure in safeguarding water resources in the region.
