Summary
This earth dam, with a structural height of 19 feet and a length of 602 feet, harnesses the waters of TR-Red Creek to provide vital water resources to the surrounding area. Despite being privately owned and not regulated by the state, the dam's high hazard potential indicates the need for careful monitoring and risk management measures.
With a maximum storage capacity of 210 acre-feet and a normal storage of 60 acre-feet, Haskell Club Dam plays a crucial role in supporting agricultural activities in the region. However, the lack of spillway and drainage area raises concerns about the dam's ability to handle extreme weather events and prevent potential flooding. The dam's condition assessment remains unrated, highlighting the importance of regular inspections and maintenance to ensure its structural integrity and the safety of downstream communities.
As water resource and climate enthusiasts, the Haskell Club Dam serves as a fascinating case study in the intersection of historical infrastructure, water management, and risk assessment. Its location in the Fort Worth District underlines the significance of understanding and addressing the challenges posed by aging dams in the face of changing climate patterns and increasing pressure on water resources. By exploring the history and current state of Haskell Club Dam, we can gain valuable insights into the ongoing efforts to safeguard our water infrastructure and adapt to a rapidly evolving climate landscape.

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.
