E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 01 dam
E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 01
E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 01, located in Van Buren, Arkansas, is a significant flood risk reduction structure managed by the USDA NRCS. This earth dam, completed in 1965, stands at a height of 49 feet and spans 1480 feet along the Shipp Creek. With a storage capacity of 2673 acre-feet and a normal storage of 107 acre-feet, the dam serves the primary purpose of mitigating flood risks in the region. Despite being uncontrolled, the spillway and outlet gates allow for the safe discharge of water during high flow events.
The dam's low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment indicate that it is a crucial component of the local water resource infrastructure. While the condition assessment is currently not rated, regular inspections and compliance with state regulatory agencies ensure its operational integrity. The structure's strategic location in S26,T10N,R15W, combined with its effective design and construction by the NRCS, highlights the importance of proactive flood risk management in the area. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 01 serves as a prime example of engineering excellence in safeguarding communities against potential water-related disasters.
Dam data reference
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.
- 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.
- 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.
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, environmental 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.

About E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 01
Where does the data for E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 01 come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Low hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
