It impounds the Antelope Creek near N.

The dam stands 10 feet tall, creates a reservoir covering 6 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 224 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 28 square miles. Completed in 2001, the structure is relatively new.

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.
