This private-owned earth dam stands at a height of 30 feet and has a length of 500 feet, creating a reservoir with a storage capacity of 480 acre-feet. The dam, designed as a buttress structure, is situated on Pen Branch and is not regulated by the state.
Despite its age, the dam's hazard potential is not available and its condition has not been rated. However, it is classified as having a high risk, indicating the need for careful monitoring and potentially improved risk management measures. With no spillway and minimal associated structures, the dam's safety and stability are crucial for protecting the surrounding area from potential flooding and ensuring a reliable water supply for the community. Efforts to assess and address any risks associated with the dam may be necessary to safeguard both the infrastructure and the environment it serves.
