E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 09 dam
E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 09
E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 09 is a local government-owned fish and wildlife pond located in Morrilton, Arkansas. Constructed in 1969 by the USDA NRCS, this Earth dam structure stands at 69 feet in height and spans a length of 1450 feet. With a storage capacity of 7808 acre-feet and a drainage area of 14.2 square miles, this site on Prairie Creek serves a primary purpose of providing habitat for fish and wildlife.
Despite being classified as having a high hazard potential, the dam's condition has not been rated as of the last inspection in July 2015. With a moderate risk assessment score of 3, there are no Emergency Action Plans (EAP) prepared or updated for this site, raising concerns about its readiness in case of an emergency. However, the dam has not been modified in recent years, and with proper risk management measures in place, the site continues to serve its intended purpose.
Located within the Little Rock District and under the regulatory authority of the Arkansas Natural Resources Commission (ANRC), E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 09 stands as a key feature in the local landscape. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, it is crucial to monitor and ensure the safety and functionality of such structures to protect both the environment and the surrounding community from potential hazards and risks associated with dam failure.
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 09
Where does the data for E Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 09 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 High 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.
