This privately owned dam, standing at a height of 13 feet and with a length of 1000 feet, holds a storage capacity of 128 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 14 acres. The dam, primarily constructed with earth materials and buttress core types, overlooks the TR-STAMPEDE CREEK and is under the jurisdiction of the Fort Worth District of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Despite lacking a spillway, the dam has one outlet gate and has not been rated for its condition assessment. The hazard potential is not available, but the risk assessment indicates a high risk level of 2. With no emergency action plan in place, the dam poses potential risks to the surrounding area in the event of a failure. While state permitting and inspection are in place, there is no state enforcement agency overseeing the dam's operations, raising concerns about its maintenance and safety protocols. Enthusiasts of water resources and climate may find this dam to be an intriguing case study given its unique design, multiple purposes, and lack of comprehensive risk management measures.
