About Wayne Brand Structure Dam
The primary purpose of Wayne Brand Structure 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 Wayne Brand (private). It impounds the Tr-clear Creek near Burlington Junction.
The dam stands 28 feet tall and stretches 420 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 16 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 25 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 275 square miles. Completed in 1968, 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.
