About Panther Creek Watershed Dam E- 10

The primary purpose of Panther Creek Watershed Dam E- 10 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 Panther Cr Wshd Subdist (local government). It impounds the Tr-panther Creek near Mt Moriah.

The dam stands 30 feet tall and stretches 460 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 7 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 117 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 211 square miles. Completed in 1965, 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.
