Summary

Managed by the US Army, this recreational pond was completed in 1964 and covers an area of 82 acres with a storage capacity of 730 acre-feet. With a primary purpose of providing recreational opportunities for visitors, Pond 1 serves as a haven for fish and wildlife enthusiasts, offering a serene setting for outdoor activities.

The earth dam that forms Pond 1 stands at 22 feet high and spans a length of 1250 feet, with a spillway width of 4 feet. Despite its low hazard potential, the pond undergoes regular inspections every four years to ensure its safety and functionality. While the condition assessment is currently not available, the risk assessment indicates a moderate risk level of 3, prompting the need for continued monitoring and maintenance to mitigate potential risks.

Surrounded by the Tri-Beards Creek and picturesque landscapes, Pond 1 provides a tranquil escape for nature lovers and climate enthusiasts alike. With its rich history, diverse wildlife, and recreational opportunities, this federal-owned water resource stands as a testament to the importance of preserving and appreciating our natural environments in the face of changing climate patterns.

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.
