This Earth-type dam stands at a height of 18 feet and spans 985 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 118 acre-feet. The dam is situated on TR-Munger Creek and is regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement in place.
Despite its age, the dam's hazard potential is not available, and its condition has not been rated. The last inspection took place in 1985, raising concerns about its safety and maintenance. With a risk assessment of "High (2)", there is a need for proper risk management measures to ensure the safety of the surrounding area in case of emergencies. The dam does not have a spillway and is equipped with one outlet gate, hinting at potential limitations in flood control capabilities. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, City of Coolidge Lake No 2 Dam presents an intriguing case study in the management and maintenance of aging infrastructure for recreational and water management purposes.
