About Lake Concord Dam
The primary purpose of Lake Concord Dam is debris control. The dam is designed to catch sediment, rocks, and debris carried by flowing water — particularly important in areas prone to mudslides or heavy erosion. The dam is owned by American Bank/plattsburg (private). It impounds the Tr to Little Platte River near Plattsburg.
The dam stands 31 feet tall, creates a reservoir covering 32 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 531 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 900 square miles. Completed in 1974, the structure is well into its service life at over 50 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.
