Summary

With a maximum storage capacity of 101 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 79 acre-feet, the dam spans 765 feet in length and stands at a structural height of 12 feet. The dam is primarily used for recreation purposes and is classified as an earth dam with a hydraulic height of 11 feet.

Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's condition has not been formally assessed, and it is not regulated or inspected by state agencies. The dam is situated on Indian Creek-TR and falls under the jurisdiction of the Vicksburg District of the US Army Corps of Engineers. While the dam has not undergone any major modifications in recent years, it remains an important feature for the local community and offers a surface area of 12.8 acres for recreational activities. Lake Wingfield No 2 Dam is a valuable water resource for residents and visitors of Junction City, Arkansas, providing opportunities for fishing, boating, and other leisure activities.

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.
