Summary

Standing at a height of 11 feet with a length of 4883 feet, this dam has a storage capacity of 1664.68 acre-feet. Despite its small surface area of 30 acres, Man03 plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the area, especially in the context of its proximity to the UNNAMED POND.

This dam falls under state jurisdiction and is regulated, inspected, and enforced by Florida authorities. While its hazard potential is currently undetermined and its condition is not rated, the dam serves as a vital infrastructure for water management in the region. As climate change continues to impact water resources, understanding and monitoring structures like Man03 becomes increasingly important for ensuring the safety and sustainability of water systems in the face of evolving environmental conditions.

With its designated purpose and crucial function in water management, Man03 represents a key component of the local infrastructure in preserving water resources. As enthusiasts in the field of water resource and climate adaptation, staying informed about the status and condition of dams like Man03 is essential for promoting resilience and sustainability in the face of changing climatic conditions and increasing water demands.

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.
