Boeing Creek Park North Pond Dam, also known as Shoreline Stormwater Dam, is a crucial structure located in King County, Washington, designed by Landau Associates to mitigate flood risk along NF Boeing Creek.
Completed in 1998, this earth dam stands at 54 feet high with a hydraulic height of 19 feet, serving the primary purpose of flood risk reduction for the surrounding area. With a capacity to store 18 acre-feet of water, it covers a surface area of 2 acres and drains a 1.05 square mile watershed.
Maintained by the local government and regulated by the Washington Department of Ecology, Boeing Creek Park North Pond Dam has a satisfactory condition assessment as of August 2020, with a high hazard potential. Despite its critical role in flood protection, the dam lacks spillway infrastructure and detailed risk management measures, pointing to areas for potential improvement. Emergency action plans are in place, with periodic inspections conducted every five years to ensure the dam's integrity and safety for the community.
Representing a key piece of infrastructure in the region, Boeing Creek Park North Pond Dam stands as a testament to efficient flood risk reduction efforts. Its strategic location and design elements play a vital role in protecting the surrounding area from potential inundation, highlighting the importance of proactive water resource management in the face of climate challenges. As climate enthusiasts and water resource advocates, understanding and supporting the ongoing maintenance and improvement of such structures is essential for promoting resilient and sustainable water management practices.
