Summary

It stands on an unnamed pond and serves as a water resource for the surrounding area. With a dam height of 18 feet and a length of 620 feet, Wdf3 has a storage capacity of 729 acre-feet, providing essential water storage for recreational activities in the region.

Despite being privately owned, Wdf3 falls under state jurisdiction and regulation, with permitting, inspection, and enforcement processes in place to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations. The dam's hazard potential is currently labeled as undetermined, with a condition assessment of "Not Rated". While the dam's emergency action plan and risk management measures are not specified in the data, its location and purpose for recreation make it a significant resource for water enthusiasts and climate advocates in the area.

As part of the Mobile District in Florida, Wdf3 offers a valuable recreational space for the community while also serving as a water storage facility. Its location in a scenic area with a surface area of 17 acres adds to its appeal for outdoor enthusiasts.

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.
