This earth dam stands at 33 feet tall and spans 1975 feet in length, providing a storage capacity of 2013 acre-feet. Despite its primary purpose of flood risk reduction, the dam also supports fire protection, stock or small fish pond, fish and wildlife pond, and recreational activities.
Owned and regulated by the local government, this dam falls under the jurisdiction of the TCEQ for state permitting, inspection, and enforcement. The structure is classified as a high-risk potential with a hazard rating of 2, although its condition assessment is currently not rated. With no spillway and limited outlet gates, the dam is designed to withstand hydraulic pressures up to its maximum height of 33 feet. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the Jim Ned Creek WS SCS Site 31 Dam serves as a critical infrastructure for managing water flow and protecting downstream communities from flooding events.
