Built in 1964 for recreational purposes, this dam has a hydraulic height of 12 feet and a structural height of 14 feet, with a length of 300 feet. With a maximum storage capacity of 56 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 24 acre-feet, Arkno Name 350 serves as a low-hazard structure with a condition assessment of "Not Rated."
Despite being privately owned, Arkno Name 350 is not regulated or inspected by state agencies, and does not require permitting or enforcement. The dam has not been modified in recent years and lacks certain safety features such as spillways or outlet gates. The risk assessment and management measures for this dam are currently unknown, and emergency action plans and inundation maps have not been prepared.
Although Arkno Name 350 may not have the same level of oversight as some publicly owned dams, its low hazard potential indicates a lower risk for potential failures. However, the lack of recent inspections and safety features raises concerns about the structure's overall safety and resilience in the face of changing climate conditions and increasing water resource demands. Water resource and climate enthusiasts should keep an eye on developments related to Arkno Name 350 to ensure the continued safety and sustainability of this recreational dam.
