Situated on the TR-Leon River and managed by the Fort Worth District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, this dam plays a crucial role in supporting agricultural activities in the region.
Despite being classified as having a high risk potential, Koonce Dam 2 has not been rated for its condition assessment.
