Stonebridge Lake F 1 Dam dam
Stonebridge Lake F 1 Dam
Stonebridge Lake F 1 Dam is a privately owned structure in McKinney, Texas, designed by Huitt-Zollars Inc. Completed in 1988, this earth dam stands at 25 feet high and stretches 640 feet in length, serving primarily for flood risk reduction along the TR-Wilson Creek. With a storage capacity of 50 acre-feet and a surface area of 3.3 acres, the dam also supports irrigation and recreation purposes in the area.
Maintained by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Stonebridge Lake F 1 Dam underwent its last inspection in October 2017, revealing a fair condition assessment. The dam's spillway, with a width of 94 feet, is uncontrolled, and it features two uncontrolled outlets and one valve. With a moderate risk rating, the dam has a hazard potential that is not available, suggesting a relatively stable structure but requiring regular monitoring and maintenance to ensure its continued functionality.
Collin County's water resource enthusiasts can appreciate the role of Stonebridge Lake F 1 Dam in managing flood risks and providing water storage for the local area. Its strategic location and design elements, coupled with regulatory oversight from TCEQ, highlight the importance of maintaining this dam to safeguard the community against potential hazards and to support various water-related activities in the region.

Condition Assessment
- Satisfactory
- No existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
- Fair
- No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action.
- Poor
- A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency.
- Unsatisfactory
- A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
- Not Rated
- The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Hazard Potential Classification
- High
- Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
- Significant
- Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
- Low
- Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
- Undetermined
- Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.

About Stonebridge Lake F 1 Dam
Where does the data for Stonebridge Lake F 1 Dam come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Not Available hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
