Summary
The dam, primarily used for tailings storage, is regulated by the state of Florida and has a significant hazard potential, with a very high risk assessment rating of 1. With a dam height of 100 feet and a hydraulic height of 95 feet, the structure spans a length of 10,296 feet and has a storage capacity of 1,664 acre-feet. The dam's spillway is controlled and has a width of 64 feet.
This earth-type dam on an unnamed pond in Florida is under the jurisdiction of the Jacksonville District of the US Army Corps of Engineers. Despite being ungraded in terms of condition assessment, the dam has not been modified in recent years. The risk management measures and emergency action plan for Bradley Jxn 2 are not clearly documented, indicating potential areas for improvement in emergency preparedness and response. Water resource and climate enthusiasts may find Bradley Jxn 2's characteristics and risk profile particularly intriguing for further study and monitoring efforts in the region.
Overall, Bradley Jxn 2 serves a vital purpose in tailings storage and water management in Polk County, Florida. With its significant hazard potential and high risk assessment rating, the dam highlights the importance of ongoing monitoring, maintenance, and emergency preparedness to ensure the safety and integrity of the structure and surrounding areas. Researchers and policymakers interested in water resource management and climate resilience may find Bradley Jxn 2 to be a compelling case study for understanding the intersection of infrastructure, risk assessment, and environmental stewardship in the context of dam safety and water security.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
