Built in 1965, this 26-foot tall structure serves as a crucial water resource for the area, providing a maximum storage capacity of 17 acre-feet and a normal storage of 4 acre-feet. The dam spans 300 feet in length and sits on TR-HAWKINS CREEK, serving as a vital source of water for various purposes in the region.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Jordan #2 is in fair condition as of the last assessment in January 2014. With a moderate risk level of 3, the dam has a regular inspection frequency of 10 years to ensure its structural integrity and safety. The dam's spillway is uncontrolled, with a maximum discharge capacity of 115 cubic feet per second. Although no significant modifications have been made to the structure in recent years, ongoing monitoring and risk management measures are essential to maintaining the dam's functionality and protecting the surrounding community from any potential hazards.
