Sloan Lake Dam
Sloan Lake Dam is an earth dam located in Caldwell County, Missouri, built in 1977. It carries a Low hazard potential classification.
About Sloan Lake Dam
The primary purpose of Sloan Lake Dam is grade stabilization. Grade stabilization dams prevent erosion by reducing the slope and velocity of water flowing through a channel. They're commonly used to stop gullies from deepening and to protect downstream land and infrastructure. The dam is owned by Cindi Cozad (private). It impounds the Tr-goose Creek near Kingston.
The dam stands 29 feet tall and stretches 550 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 9 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 77 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 133 square miles. Completed in 1977, the structure is 49 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.
