About Quentin Lewis Farm Pond

The primary purpose of Quentin Lewis Farm Pond 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 Quentin Lewis (private). It impounds the Tr-north Fabius River near Memphis.

The dam stands 32 feet tall and stretches 233 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 2 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 20 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 25 square miles. Completed in 1989, the structure is 37 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.

At 32 feet, this dam is taller than 76% of dams nationwide.
