With a structural height of 64 feet and a length of 1200 feet, this earth dam on TR-Copperas Creek has a maximum storage capacity of 947 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 800 acre-feet. The dam covers a surface area of 34.3 acres and has a drainage area of 1.72 square miles, making it an essential water resource for the surrounding agricultural community.
Managed by a private owner and regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Wolfe Pecanlands Lake No 1 Dam has an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 55 feet and one uncontrolled outlet gate. While the dam has not been rated for its condition, it poses a moderate risk according to the available data. The last inspection date was in April 2012, and the dam has not been assigned a Dam Safety Action Classification (DSAC) date. Despite its unknown hazard potential, Wolfe Pecanlands Lake No 1 Dam remains a critical infrastructure for water management and agricultural irrigation in the region.
