Eagar-Slade, located in Eagar, Arizona, is a private fish and wildlife pond designed by the USDA NRCS and regulated by the Arizona Department of Water Resources. Completed in 1945, this earth dam stands at a height of 18 feet with a length of 466 feet, providing a storage capacity of 899 acre-feet and a surface area of 104 acres. The primary purpose of Eagar-Slade is to support fire protection, stock, small fish, irrigation, and fish and wildlife activities in the area.
With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating, Eagar-Slade has not been assigned a DSAC date and has not been assessed for condition. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates, with a maximum discharge capacity of 736 cubic feet per second. While last inspected in July 2011 with a scheduled inspection frequency of 5 years, the dam's emergency action plan status, inundation maps preparation, and risk management measures remain unspecified. Despite these gaps, Eagar-Slade stands as a critical water resource structure in Apache County, Arizona, serving as a valuable habitat for wildlife and supporting various water-related activities in the region.
