Located in Montezuma County, Colorado, the Weber - North Dam stands as a testament to early 20th-century engineering, having been completed in 1902 for irrigation purposes along the West Fork Mancos River. With a height of 29 feet and a length of 1329 feet, this earth dam provides a storage capacity of 652 acre-feet, serving not only irrigation needs but also fire protection, stock, and small fish pond purposes.

Managed by a private entity, this dam is regulated by the Colorado Division of Water Resources, which oversees its permitting, inspection, and enforcement activities. Despite its age, the Weber - North Dam maintains a satisfactory condition assessment, with a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating. In the event of an emergency, the dam has designated emergency contact information, although details regarding an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) preparation and updates are not specified.

The Weber - North Dam continues to play a crucial role in the water resource management of the region, ensuring a stable water supply for agricultural and other uses. As climate change impacts water resources, the maintenance and monitoring of such infrastructure become increasingly vital to safeguard against potential risks and ensure the continued safety and efficiency of the dam.
