This earth dam with a buttress core stands at a height of 35 feet and stretches 360 feet in length, holding a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet of water. The dam is situated on Pigeon Roost Creek and is regulated by the state with permitting and inspection requirements in place.
Although the dam's hazard potential is not available and its condition assessment is not rated, the last inspection in 2009 found it to be in satisfactory condition. The spillway, with a width of 85 feet, is uncontrolled, allowing for a maximum discharge of 10,750 cubic feet per second. With a moderate risk assessment of 3, measures for risk management and emergency preparedness are not specified, indicating a need for further evaluation and planning to ensure the safety and sustainability of the dam and its surrounding area.
