Summary
The dam stands at a height of 14.8 feet and has a length of 1130 feet, providing a storage capacity of 130 acre-feet. The primary purpose of the dam is categorized as 'Other', with a spillway width of 275 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 6600 cubic feet per second.
Despite being a privately-owned structure, Landreth Dam is not regulated by the state nor the federal government, with no enforcement or inspection mechanisms in place. The dam's hazard potential is listed as 'Not Available' and its condition assessment is 'Not Rated', signifying a lack of recent evaluation. The risk assessment for the dam is moderate, with a DSAC assigned date and no specific risk management measures identified.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in Landreth Dam, its construction details and operating parameters provide valuable insights into its design and functionality. The dam's location on the UN TR-TOWN BRANCH river stream and its moderate risk assessment highlight the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure the safety and effectiveness of this essential water resource infrastructure in Texas.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo 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
HighDams 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.
