Standing at a height of 10 feet and stretching for 636 feet in length, this dam on TR-Mill Run Creek has a storage capacity of 70 acre-feet and a surface area of 10.8 acres. Despite its modest size, the dam poses a high risk, according to the hazard potential rating, with limited information available on its condition assessment.
The dam lacks a spillway and is not regulated or inspected by the state, raising concerns about its safety and maintenance. The last inspection was conducted in 1974, leaving its current condition and readiness for emergencies unclear. With no emergency action plan in place and a risk assessment indicating a high level of risk, water resource and climate enthusiasts may want to monitor the situation closely and advocate for proper oversight and maintenance of Stroube Dam No 2 to ensure the safety of the surrounding community and environment.
