About Dd No 7-34

The primary purpose of Dd No 7-34 is flood risk reduction. The dam is designed to control downstream flooding by temporarily storing excess water during storms and releasing it at a controlled rate. The dam is owned by Long-scott Creeks Wd No 93 (local government). It impounds the Long Creek-tr.

The dam stands 24 feet tall and stretches 1,300 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 30 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 1,063 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 2 square miles. Completed in 2003, the structure is relatively new.
