Located in Van Zandt County, Texas, the Cedar Creek WS SCS Site 113 Dam is a critical structure designed by the USDA NRCS for flood risk reduction along the TR-CANEY CREEK.
Completed in 1974, this earth dam stands at a height of 29 feet and stretches 1350 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 1117 acre-feet. While primarily serving the purpose of flood risk reduction, this dam also supports fire protection, stock, or small fish pond, and recreation activities in the area.
Managed by the local government and regulated by the TCEQ, the Cedar Creek WS SCS Site 113 Dam plays a vital role in safeguarding the surrounding community from potential hazards. With a high risk assessment rating, the dam has not been rated for its condition, emphasizing the need for regular inspections and risk management measures to ensure its continued functionality. Despite lacking a spillway, this structure provides essential water resource management and contributes to the sustainability of the region's water supply.
As an integral part of the Fort Worth District, this dam underscores the collaborative efforts between federal and local agencies in maintaining water infrastructure and promoting environmental resilience. With its strategic location and significant storage capacity, the Cedar Creek WS SCS Site 113 Dam stands as a testament to the importance of effective flood control measures in mitigating risks and enhancing water resource management for the community's benefit.
