About Dudeck Dam
The primary purpose of Dudeck 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 John Dudeck (private). It impounds the Carroll Branch.
The dam stands 29 feet tall and stretches 290 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 2 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 44 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 25 square miles. Completed in 1985, the structure is 41 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.
