This earth dam, with a height of 44 feet and a length of 1690 feet, serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction along TR-NORTH BROWNS CREEK. With a maximum storage capacity of 900 acre-feet and a normal storage of 80 acre-feet, the dam covers a surface area of 14 acres and drains a 2.78 square mile watershed.
Despite being state-regulated by TCEQ and meeting inspection, permitting, and enforcement requirements, the dam lacks a spillway and carries a high risk rating of 2 out of 5. The hazard potential and condition assessment are not available, indicating a need for further evaluation and risk management measures. With no associated structures and limited emergency preparedness information, stakeholders and the local community should stay informed about the dam's safety and potential impact in the event of a flood or emergency situation. The presence of only one outlet gate raises questions about the dam's operational flexibility and ability to manage water levels effectively.
