Built in 1951, this rockfill dam stands at a height of 43 feet and serves multiple purposes, including hydroelectric power generation and irrigation. Managed by the Bureau of Reclamation, the dam has a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet and a low hazard potential.
Despite its age, the condition assessment of Little Hell Creek Diversion is currently listed as "Not Available," with a risk assessment rating of "High (2)." While it lacks certain safety features like a spillway, the dam's emergency action plan status and risk management measures remain unknown.
