Summary
Completed in 1972, this earth dam stands at a height of 32 feet and spans a length of 1720 feet, providing a storage capacity of 564 acre-feet. Despite its high risk assessment level of 2, the dam's hazard potential is currently not available and its condition remains unrated.
Managed by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), North Creek WS SCS Site 25 Dam serves as a vital infrastructure for flood risk reduction along the TR-NORTH CREEK waterway. With no spillway and limited emergency preparedness measures in place, the dam's safety and maintenance are of utmost importance to ensure the protection of surrounding areas and communities. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the resilience and effectiveness of structures like this dam are essential for sustainable water management practices in the region.
As water resource and climate enthusiasts monitor the state-regulated North Creek WS SCS Site 25 Dam, its design, construction, and operational oversight by the Natural Resources Conservation Service highlight the collaborative efforts required to address evolving environmental challenges. With a focus on flood risk reduction and a commitment to enhancing dam safety, stakeholders must prioritize regular inspections, risk assessments, and emergency preparedness to safeguard the dam's integrity and ensure the long-term resilience of water infrastructure in the face of changing climatic conditions.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
