About Jjrp
The primary purpose of Jjrp 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 Jjrp Farms Inc. (private). It impounds the Bear Creek near Wyaconda.
The dam stands 20 feet tall and stretches 545 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 4 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 94 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 32 square miles. Completed in 1998, the structure is 28 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.
