Summary

This area is regulated by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and is used for tailings purposes, with a primary dam type of Earth. The dam stands at a height of 35 feet and has a controlled spillway with a width of 64 feet, ensuring the safety and stability of the structure.

Constructed in 1999, this dam has a storage capacity of 13,000 acre-feet and a surface area of 370 acres. With a significant hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating, it is essential for climate and water resource enthusiasts to closely monitor and assess the condition of S1 Mix Area South Pasture. While the dam has not been rated for its current condition, regular inspections and risk management measures are crucial to prevent any potential disasters and ensure the safety of the surrounding area and the Peace River ecosystem.

Managed by private owners, this dam plays a vital role in water resource management in the region and requires careful oversight to mitigate any risks associated with its operation. With its location in a high-risk area and potential for significant impact in case of failure, stakeholders must prioritize the maintenance and monitoring of S1 Mix Area South Pasture to uphold the integrity of the structure and protect the local environment from any adverse effects.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
