The Tumco Monticello Winfield Mine Dam J-3, located in Mount Pleasant, Texas, was completed in 1992 and serves as a tailings dam with a primary purpose of storing tailings.
This private-owned dam is an earth dam with a buttress core type and stands at a height of 30 feet, offering a storage capacity of 160 acre-feet. The dam is situated on the TR-Tankersly Creek/Lake and has a surface area of 7.29 acres, serving a drainage area of 0.71 square miles.
Despite being a non-federally regulated structure, the Tumco Monticello Winfield Mine Dam J-3 poses a high risk, with a hazard potential of not being available for assessment. The dam does not have a spillway and features no locks, with a single outlet gate. While the condition of the dam is not rated, it is essential for water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor the risk associated with this structure in order to ensure the safety and integrity of the surrounding area and community.
