Standing at a height of 35 feet with a length of 650 feet, this earth dam offers a storage capacity of 418 acre-feet, making it a popular destination for outdoor activities such as fishing and boating. Despite its high risk assessment level of 2, the dam's hazard potential is not available and its condition remains unrated.
Owned privately, Rod Lake No 2 Dam is not regulated by the state of Texas but does undergo inspections and permitting processes. With a primary purpose of recreation, the dam lacks a spillway and has no locks for passage. The surrounding Line Creek offers a serene backdrop for visitors to enjoy the 21-acre surface area and engage in various water-based activities. While the dam's risk status is deemed high, specific risk management measures and disaster preparedness details are yet to be fully disclosed.
