About this dam

W Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 14

W Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 14 is a fish and wildlife pond located in Conway, Arkansas, managed by the USDA NRCS. This Earth-type dam, completed in 1966, stands at a height of 51 feet and spans 789 feet in length. With a storage capacity of 1193 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 695 acre-feet, the pond covers a surface area of 49 acres and drains a 2.8 square mile watershed.

The dam is regulated by the Arkansas Natural Resources Commission and is inspected regularly for safety and compliance. Despite its low hazard potential, the risk assessment rates it as moderate. The spillway is uncontrolled, with no outlet gates or locks, and the structure is primarily made of stone. While the condition assessment is currently not rated, the dam serves an important purpose in providing habitat for fish and wildlife in the area.

Water resource and climate enthusiasts will appreciate the ecological significance of W Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 14 as a vital part of the local ecosystem. Its presence on Taw Branch contributes to the overall health of the watershed, supporting a variety of species and providing a valuable resource for both recreation and conservation efforts. The collaboration between local government agencies and the USDA NRCS in managing this dam showcases a commitment to sustainable water management practices and the preservation of natural habitats in the region.

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.

FAQ

About W Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 14

Where does the data for W Fork Pt Remove Creek Wid Site 14 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.
