Built in 1969, this structure on the C-32C (Trout-Joel Canal) is owned by the state and is subject to state permitting, inspection, and enforcement. With a low hazard potential and a height of 19 feet, S-58 has a storage capacity of 73,000 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 43,000 acre-feet.
Although S-58 is primarily used for flood risk reduction, it also serves irrigation purposes in the area. The dam has a structural height of 14 feet and a length of 50 feet, covering a surface area of 3,842 acres. Despite its age, S-58 has not been rated for its condition assessment, and there is no information available on its emergency action plan or risk management measures. The dam is not operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers and has not been modified in recent years.
Overall, S-58 plays a crucial role in managing water resources in Osceola County, Florida, and contributes to the overall water infrastructure of the region. As a state-regulated structure with a focus on flood risk reduction, it is essential for ensuring the safety and well-being of the surrounding communities. Further assessments and updates may be needed to enhance the dam's resilience and preparedness for potential risks and emergencies in the future.
