This Earth dam stands at a height of 25 feet with a length of 550 feet, providing a storage capacity of 110 acre-feet. Situated on TR-PEACH CREEK, this dam is under the jurisdiction of the Galveston District of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Despite the lack of state regulation and enforcement, the dam is inspected and permitted by the state of Texas. With a high hazard potential, the condition assessment of the dam is currently not rated. The dam lacks a spillway and is equipped with one outlet gate. Although it does not have a designated emergency action plan, the risk assessment for the dam is categorized as high. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, the Frierson No 2 Lake Dam presents an interesting case study in private dam management and risk mitigation strategies.
