Pond 14, also known as River Canyon or Ravenna, is a private water resource located in Littleton, Colorado. Built in 2006 by J A Cesare and Associates, this earth dam stands at a height of 30 feet and serves primarily for water supply purposes. With a maximum storage capacity of 21 acre-feet and a normal storage of 6 acre-feet, Pond 14 covers a surface area of 2 acres and has a maximum discharge rate of 405 cubic feet per second.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Pond 14 undergoes regular inspections by the state regulatory agency, DWR, with the last assessment conducted in February 2019. The dam's condition was deemed satisfactory during this evaluation, indicating its reliable structural integrity. While there are no associated structures or locks, the uncontrolled spillway with a width of 4 feet ensures the safe release of excess water in case of emergencies. Overall, Pond 14 presents a moderate risk level (3) according to a risk assessment, highlighting the importance of continued monitoring and adherence to safety protocols for water resource enthusiasts and climate advocates alike.
