About Englert Lake Dam
The primary purpose of Englert Lake Dam is debris control. The dam is designed to catch sediment, rocks, and debris carried by flowing water — particularly important in areas prone to mudslides or heavy erosion. The dam is owned by Edward L Englert (private). It impounds the Tr-brush Creek near Dawn.
The dam stands 26 feet tall, creates a reservoir covering 8 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 111 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 190 square miles. Completed in 1969, the structure is well into its service life at over 50 years old.
This dam has a low hazard potential classification, meaning that failure would cause minimal damage, limited primarily to the dam owner's property, with no expected loss of life.
