Located in Taylor, Wisconsin, Liske #2 is a privately owned earth dam completed in 1978 with a primary purpose of fire protection, stock, or small fish pond. Managed by the USDA NRCS and regulated by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, this structure stands at 23 feet high with a storage capacity of 114 acre-feet. The dam's hazard potential is classified as low, with a condition assessment rating of fair as of May 2020.
With a controlled spillway type and a drainage area of 0.1 square miles, Liske #2 has a very high risk rating due to its location along the East Branch of the Little Black River. Although last inspected in 2008, the dam is scheduled for inspection every 10 years to ensure its continued safety and functionality. Despite its fair condition assessment, the risk management measures and emergency action plans for this dam are currently unavailable, suggesting a potential area for improvement in its overall safety protocols. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Liske #2 serves as a noteworthy structure to monitor and assess in the context of sustainable water management practices.
