Grade
95
Score

High Hazard
Perry County has 39 dams in the federal inventory. The county's report-card score is driven by 20 high-hazard dams, 1 poor or unsatisfactory condition records, 0 high-hazard dams without a recorded Emergency Action Plan, and 15 high-hazard dams with blank or older inspection dates.
Interpretation: higher scores identify places where public records deserve closer review. The score does not predict failure probability and should be checked against official state and local dam-safety sources.
