Summary
Completed in 1967, this earth dam with a height of 45 feet and a length of 1675 feet serves as a key component in managing water resources in the region. With a storage capacity of 2085 acre-feet and a normal storage of 128 acre-feet, the dam plays a crucial role in regulating water flow and mitigating potential flooding in the area.
Managed by local government authorities and regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), the Ne Trib Leon River WS SCS Site 24 Dam is inspected for safety and functionality periodically to ensure its effectiveness in flood risk reduction. Despite not having a spillway, the dam's structure and design, including buttress cores and unknown foundations, contribute to its stability and ability to withstand high-risk situations. Furthermore, the dam's location in a high-risk area underscores the importance of implementing effective risk management measures to safeguard the surrounding communities and environment.
As a valuable asset for water resource management and flood control in the region, the Ne Trib Leon River WS SCS Site 24 Dam plays a significant role in protecting the local community from potential disasters. With its strategic design and regulatory oversight, the dam stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts of government agencies and designers in ensuring the safety and sustainability of water infrastructure in Texas. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the importance of maintaining and upgrading such critical infrastructure becomes increasingly paramount for the resilience and well-being of the region.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
