While the dam is not regulated by the state and has not been rated for condition assessment, it is considered to have a moderate risk level (3). The emergency action plan (EAP) for Campbell Lake Dam was last revised in January 2011, indicating some level of preparedness in case of an emergency. The dam is not owned or funded by any federal agency and has not been inspected since May 2009. Despite these limitations, Campbell Lake Dam remains a crucial structure in managing water resources in the area and mitigating potential risks associated with its operation.
