Summary

The dam, designed by the USDA NRCS, stands at a height of 18 feet and spans 400 feet in length. Its primary purpose is for recreation, offering a serene environment for visitors to enjoy water activities and scenic views.

Despite being privately owned, Schroeder Lake No 2 Dam is not regulated or inspected by state authorities, highlighting the importance of self-monitoring and maintenance by the owner. The dam has a significant hazard potential, signaling the need for proper risk management measures to ensure the safety of surrounding areas in case of emergencies. While the condition of the dam is currently not rated, it is crucial for the owner to regularly assess its structural integrity to prevent any potential risks.

With a storage capacity of 600 acre-feet, Schroeder Lake No 2 Dam provides a vital source of water for recreational use in the area. The dam's location on Cane Creek-Os offers a tranquil setting for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers to appreciate the beauty of the surrounding landscape. As interest in water resources and climate conservation grows, maintaining the safety and efficiency of dams like Schroeder Lake No 2 Dam becomes increasingly important to preserve both the environment and recreational opportunities for future generations.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.

Hazard Potential Classification

High
Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
