Summary
24, also known as Mud River Pool, is a Federal-owned water resource located in Thief River Falls, Minnesota. This pool was completed in 1946 and serves a primary purpose of "Other." It is an Earth dam type with a height of 8 feet and a length of 1300 feet, providing a storage capacity of 2340 acre-feet.
Situated on the Mud River, Pool No. 24 has a low hazard potential and is currently in "Not Rated" condition. This pool plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the region, with a normal storage capacity of 120 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 1950 cubic feet per second. While there are no associated structures or locks, this pool serves as an important water management structure for the area.
With its location in Marshall County, Minnesota, Pool No. 24 is a significant asset managed by the Omaha District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. While it is not currently regulated or permitted by the state, this pool plays a vital role in controlling water flow and ensuring the efficient management of water resources in the region. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Pool No. 24 stands as a testament to the importance of sustainable water management practices in the face of changing environmental conditions.

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.
