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.
