Designed by USDA NRCS, this earth dam serves a primary purpose that is categorized as "Other." With a storage capacity of 42 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 30 acre-feet, it plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the area. The dam, situated on TR-Elm Creek, is regulated by the state of Texas and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its structural integrity.
Despite being labeled as having a high risk potential, the condition of Concord Oil Dam is currently not rated. It lacks a spillway and associated locks, but does feature one outlet gate. The dam's hazard potential is listed as "Not Available," indicating a need for further assessment and risk management measures. With a strong focus on state permitting and inspection, the dam remains an essential component in the region's water resource infrastructure, although its condition and risk level warrant continued monitoring and potential upgrades to enhance safety and efficiency in the face of changing climate conditions.
