Jon R Coan Lake Dam, located in Comanche, Texas, was completed in 1978 and serves as an essential irrigation source in the region.
The dam, primarily designed for irrigation purposes, stands at a height of 23 feet with a storage capacity of 138 acre-feet. Although the dam does not have a spillway, it is equipped with a single outlet gate for water management.
Despite being privately owned, the dam is subject to state permitting and inspection requirements. Its condition assessment is currently not rated, and it has a high risk assessment level of 2. The dam's hazard potential is not available, and its emergency action plan status and risk management measures are also unknown. With its strategic location along the TR-Sabana River, Jon R Coan Lake Dam plays a vital role in supporting agricultural activities in the area and underscores the importance of sustainable water resource management in the face of climate variability.
