About Buck & Doe Run Watershed Dam Lt-58
The primary purpose of Buck & Doe Run Watershed Dam Lt-58 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 Larry Job (private). It impounds the Tr-doe Run near Canton.
The dam stands 26 feet tall and stretches 320 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 2 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 46 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 128 square miles. Completed in 1979, the structure is 47 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.
