I C G R R Reservoir Mccomb Dam dam
I C G R R Reservoir Mccomb Dam
The I C G R R Reservoir Mccomb Dam, located in Mississippi, serves as a critical water supply resource in the region. Owned privately, this earth dam stands at a height of 26 feet and stretches 2200 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 936 acre-feet. Completed in 1903, the dam plays a vital role in managing the flow of the UNT of Clean Creek and provides water for various purposes, primarily for water supply.
Maintained and regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, the dam is regularly inspected to ensure its structural integrity. Despite being classified as having a high hazard potential, the condition assessment of the dam is rated as satisfactory, with risk management measures in place to address any potential issues. With a moderate risk assessment rating, the dam continues to play a crucial role in water resource management in the area, highlighting its importance in the local ecosystem and community.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, the I C G R R Reservoir Mccomb Dam represents a significant infrastructure that not only provides essential water supply but also serves as a key point of interest in understanding the dynamics of water management and environmental conservation. With its historical significance and ongoing maintenance efforts, this dam is a focal point for studying the intersection of human infrastructure, natural resources, and climate resilience in the region.

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.
- 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.
- 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.
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, environmental 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.

About I C G R R Reservoir Mccomb Dam
Where does the data for I C G R R Reservoir Mccomb Dam come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the High hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
