Despite not having a spillway, the dam has a maximum storage capacity of 1288 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 25.5 acres. Although it is currently rated as "Not Available" in terms of hazard potential and "Not Rated" for condition assessment, the risk assessment categorizes it as having a high risk level of 2.
