Chez Pond, located in St. Louis County, Minnesota, is a privately owned Earth dam constructed in 1973 by the NRCS for the primary purpose of Fish and Wildlife Pond. The dam stands at 24 feet in height with a length of 450 feet, creating a reservoir with a maximum storage capacity of 34 acre-feet and a normal storage of 17 acre-feet. The pond covers an area of 3 acres and has a drainage area of 0.8 square miles, with a controlled spillway type designed to handle a maximum discharge of 400 cubic feet per second.
Despite its low hazard potential, Chez Pond is currently in poor condition as of the last assessment conducted in July 2015. The risk assessment for the dam indicates a very high risk level, with a DSAC assigned rating of "Very High (1)". The dam is regulated by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular inspections, with the last inspection taking place in July 2015. With its location on the Talmadge River, this dam is an essential feature for fish and wildlife habitat in the area, making its maintenance and upkeep crucial for the surrounding ecosystem and water resources.
