The dam, with a height of 25 feet and a storage capacity of 428 acre-feet, was primarily constructed for recreational purposes on the TRIB-SHOAL CREEK. Despite being categorized as a low hazard potential structure, Mononame 717 has not been inspected since April 1981.
The dam, classified as an Earth core type with a Buttress foundation, covers a surface area of 32 acres and drains an area of 304 square miles. While the dam's condition is currently listed as "Not Rated," its emergency action plan status, risk assessment, and inundation maps are all unlisted or unknown. Additionally, there is no information available on the dam's year of completion, spillway type, or the presence of outlet gates.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the maintenance and safety of dams, Mononame 717 serves as a point of intrigue due to its historical lack of inspection and unclear emergency preparedness measures. With its location in a region prone to severe weather events, further assessment and monitoring of this structure's condition and safety protocols may be necessary to ensure the protection of both the environment and local communities in the event of a potential breach or failure.
