Summary
Completed in 1999, the primary purpose of this dam is flood risk reduction. Standing at a height of 28 feet and with a length of 1050 feet, Dd No 7-11 has a storage capacity of 752 acre-feet and a drainage area of 2.42 square miles. The dam is state-regulated and has state permitting, inspection, and enforcement processes in place to ensure its safety and functionality.
Despite being classified as low hazard potential, Dd No 7-11 is subject to moderate risk assessment due to its location and function. The dam has not been rated for its condition assessment, but it meets state guidelines for emergency action plans. With a spillway width of 100 feet and a maximum discharge of 2684 cubic feet per second, Dd No 7-11 is equipped to handle excess water flow during flood events. Overall, this dam plays a crucial role in mitigating flood risks in the area and is closely monitored to ensure its effectiveness in protecting the surrounding community.

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.
