This earth dam, with a height of 20 feet and a length of 1470 feet, holds a maximum storage capacity of 225 acre-feet and a normal storage of 84 acre-feet. The primary purpose of the dam is for water supply, particularly for the TR-Bill Walker Creek.
Despite its importance for water resource management, Beulah Tank Dam does not have a spillway and is classified as having a high risk potential. The dam is currently not rated in terms of its condition assessment, and there is no available information on emergency action preparedness or risk management measures. With its unique buttress core design and location within the Fort Worth District, Beulah Tank Dam presents a fascinating case study for climate and water resource enthusiasts interested in understanding the challenges and opportunities associated with managing water infrastructure in Texas.
