Summary
This earth dam has a structural height of 11 feet and a hydraulic height of 8 feet, with a storage capacity of 180 acre-feet. The dam is situated on the Little La Grue Bayou-TR river or stream and falls under the jurisdiction of the Memphis District of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Despite its low hazard potential, Hall Lake Dam has not been rated for its condition assessment yet. It does not have a designated emergency action plan in place, and there is limited information available regarding its risk management measures. The dam has not been modified in recent years and has not undergone any state inspections or regulatory oversight, as it is privately owned and not state-regulated.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Hall Lake Dam offers a glimpse into the infrastructure supporting agricultural irrigation in Arkansas. With an emphasis on private ownership and minimal government involvement, this dam serves as a vital component in managing water resources for the surrounding area. As climate change continues to impact water availability, understanding the status and condition of dams like Hall Lake Dam becomes increasingly important for sustainable water management practices.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo 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
HighDams 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.
