Summary

Built in 1982 by HTB, Inc., this earth dam stands at a height of 25 feet and has a storage capacity of 216 acre-feet, with a primary purpose of flood risk reduction. Despite its importance in protecting the surrounding area from flooding, the dam is currently not rated for its condition and has a high risk assessment level of 2.

Owned by the local government and regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Lakeview WS SCS Site 12 Dam is equipped with a slide (sluice gate) outlet gate for water control. While it lacks a spillway, the dam's design includes buttress core types and an unlisted/unknown foundation. The dam's last inspection was conducted in October 2014, and its hazard potential is currently classified as not available. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, understanding the importance and condition of structures like Lakeview WS SCS Site 12 Dam is crucial for ensuring the safety and resilience of our communities in the face of changing climate patterns and increasing water-related risks.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
