Summary

Completed in 1964, this earth dam stands at a height of 25 feet and has a storage capacity of 200 acre-feet. The dam, situated on the TR-WHITE OAK CREEK, is primarily owned by a private entity and is not regulated by the state. Despite lacking a spillway, the dam has been deemed to have a high risk potential, with no recent condition assessment available.

Although the dam has not been associated with any federal agencies for funding or oversight, it plays a crucial role in providing water resources for fire protection and livestock in the area. The structure, with a length of 2016 feet, has not undergone any modifications in recent years and is equipped with one outlet gate. While the dam's hazard potential is marked as "Not Available," its risk assessment is categorized as high. With no emergency action plan in place and limited information on its condition, the Tx No Name No 39 Dam presents both challenges and opportunities for water resource and climate enthusiasts to explore and monitor in the future.

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.
