About Mcrobert Dam

The primary purpose of Mcrobert 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 Max Mcrobert (private). It impounds the Tr-middle Fabius River near Rutledge.

The dam stands 31 feet tall and stretches 265 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 1 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 34 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 377 square miles. Completed in 2005, the structure is relatively new.

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. The most recent inspection on record was 09/15/2005. That was over 20 years ago.
