Summary

This earth dam stands at a height of 32 feet and spans 544 feet, with a storage capacity of 36 acre-feet. The dam serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction along TR-JIM WHITE HOLLOW.

Managed by the local government and regulated by the TCEQ, Clear Creek WS SCS Sed Cont Str 108 is considered to have a high risk potential with a hazard rating of 2. Despite being in good condition, the dam's hazard potential is not available, and it is not currently rated. With no spillway and limited discharge capacity, this structure plays a crucial role in managing water resources and climate impacts in the area.

For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Clear Creek WS SCS Sed Cont Str 108 is a fascinating structure that showcases the importance of proactive flood risk reduction measures. With its strategic location and design features, this dam not only protects the surrounding area from potential flooding but also contributes to the overall resilience of the region's water infrastructure. Its history, purpose, and risk assessment make it a noteworthy site for those interested in sustainable water management practices and climate adaptation strategies.

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. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
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. Investigations and studies are necessary.
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.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.

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, environment 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.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
