Fishers Canyon Debris Basin Dam, located in Colorado Springs, is a rockfill dam designed by CN Hatton and URSG Woodward Clyde to reduce flood risk in the Fishers Canyon Channel. Completed in 1999, this privately owned dam stands at a height of 26 feet with a hydraulic height of 36 feet and a structural height of 42 feet. The primary purpose of the dam is flood risk reduction, with additional functions including debris control.

With a storage capacity of 28 acre-feet, the Fishers Canyon Debris Basin Dam has a spillway width of 150 feet and a maximum discharge of 7370 cubic feet per second. Despite being assessed as in fair condition during the last inspection in September 2020, the dam has a high hazard potential. While the risk assessment is moderate, measures for risk management and emergency preparedness are not clearly outlined. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, understanding the importance of maintaining and regulating structures like the Fishers Canyon Debris Basin Dam is crucial for effective flood control and water resource management in the region.
