Built in 1948, this Earth-type dam boasts a height of 8 feet and a length of 6750 feet, with a storage capacity of 267 acre-feet. The dam, which is under the jurisdiction of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), has not been rated for its condition but is classified as having a high risk potential.
Despite a lack of spillway and associated structures, the Seaberg Reservoir No 3 Dam remains a vital component of the region's water resource management infrastructure. While it has not been modified in recent years and is not owned or funded by federal agencies, the dam's existence underscores the importance of private initiatives in water conservation efforts. With its location off CH-TR-ADLONG DITCH and connection to the Fort Worth District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, the dam serves as a crucial asset for irrigation in the area.
