Summary
Completed in 2021, this earth dam structure stands at a height of 30 feet and has a hydraulic height of 19.4 feet, serving a primary purpose other than flood control. With a storage capacity of 65,650 acre-feet and a surface area of 3,420 acres, the reservoir plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the region.
The reservoir boasts a controlled spillway with a width of 40 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 1,100 cubic feet per second. With a high hazard potential and very high risk assessment rating, the C-44 Reservoir is a key component in mitigating flood risks in the area. Despite its high risk level, the condition assessment of the reservoir is currently not available, highlighting the need for regular inspections and maintenance to ensure its structural integrity and effectiveness in water management.
Overall, C-44 Reservoir serves as a critical water management infrastructure in Martin County, Florida, with its completion in 2021 marking a significant milestone in the region's flood control and water resource management efforts. As a state-regulated facility with a high hazard potential, continued monitoring and maintenance of the reservoir are essential to safeguarding the surrounding communities and environment from potential flood risks.

Dam Data Reference
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.
