It was constructed as part of the City of Omaha ’ s ( City ) OPW 52390A - Adams Park Landscape Improvements in 2016 . As designed , Adams Park will act as a combination large wetland and stormwater detention basin . During dry weather , a permanent pool will be present up to an elevation of approximately 1074 - ft to 1075 - ft . During rain events , stormwater runoff will enter the Adams Park GI at the outfall structure located at the south end of the park near 36th and Maple Street . After the event , dewatering of the pool occurs through the Basin Discharge Control Structure ( BDCS ), located at the north end of the park . For very large precipitation events the elevation of water may reach a maximum elevation of 1082 - ft , which is the elevation of the auxiliary spillway of the dam . If this water elevation is reached , flows will overtop the dam embankment at the auxiliary spillway and flow down Bedford Ave .
