The dam, primarily made of earth with buttress core types, stands at a height of 15 feet and has a length of 650 feet, providing a maximum storage capacity of 120 acre-feet. It is situated along the TR-Elm Creek and is owned and regulated by private entities, with the state permitting and inspecting its operations.
Despite its high hazard potential, the dam has not been rated for its condition assessment and lacks an emergency action plan. However, it continues to play a crucial role in water management in the region. With a risk assessment rating of high (2) and its association with the Galveston District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Coates Estate Lake No 2 Dam remains a key structure for water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor and study in the context of sustainable development and climate change adaptation in Texas.
