Summary

Completed in 1969, this earth dam stands at a height of 14.5 feet with a maximum storage capacity of 56 acre-feet. The primary purpose of the dam is for recreation, offering a surface area of 12 acres for water enthusiasts to enjoy.

With a high hazard potential, Lake Bloomfield Dam has not been rated for its condition assessment. Despite not being regulated by the state, the dam presents a potential risk that should be monitored closely. The last inspection was conducted in June 2016, emphasizing the importance of regular assessments to ensure the safety and integrity of the structure.

Located within the Vicksburg District, Lake Bloomfield Dam serves as a recreational spot in Saline County, Arkansas. As climate change continues to impact water resources, it is crucial for enthusiasts and stakeholders to stay informed about the condition and management of such structures to mitigate any potential risks and ensure the sustainability of our water systems.

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.
