Built in 1984, this earth dam stands at a height of 50 feet with a hydraulic height of 45 feet and a structural height of 52 feet. It serves the primary purpose of storing tailings and has a maximum storage capacity of 19,500 acre-feet.
With a surface area of 407 acres and a drainage area of 65 square miles, Mosaic Csa Bf3 has a significant hazard potential and is classified as having a very high risk level. The dam features a controlled spillway with a width of 64 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 320 cubic feet per second. Despite its importance for water resource management, this dam has not been assessed for condition and does not have an emergency action plan in place.
Given its critical role in the region's water infrastructure, Mosaic Csa Bf3 warrants close monitoring and management to ensure its continued safety and effectiveness. With its location in a high-risk area and lack of recent inspection data, stakeholders and regulators must prioritize the assessment and maintenance of this dam to mitigate potential risks and protect the surrounding community and environment from water resource and climate-related challenges.
