Erected in 1978, the nearly 80-foot-high earthen dam impounds the water of the east fork of the Little Chariton River and contains the Long Branch reservoir created by the dam. With approximately 24 miles of shoreline and a flood-control capacity of 98,000 acre-feet, thoroughly inspecting this dam is no small feat. A periodic inspection occurs every five years and all parts of the structure are surveyed and tested for quality to ensure maximum functionality.
