This private earth dam, with a height of 10 feet and a length of 2800 feet, has a storage capacity of 160 acre-feet. Despite being regulated and inspected by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), the dam's hazard potential is currently labeled as "Not Available," indicating a lack of recent assessment data.
The levee, situated along the off channel of Cedar Bayou, is not equipped with a spillway and has no associated structures. While the condition assessment is listed as "Not Rated" and the last inspection took place in 1971, the risk assessment categorizes the dam as having a high risk level (2). With no Emergency Action Plan (EAP) currently in place and limited information on risk management measures, there is a need for further evaluation and potential updates to ensure the safety and effectiveness of Seaberg Levee No 1 for both irrigation and flood control purposes in the future.
