Bogue Watershed Structure Y-30-058 Dam Reservoir Report
Last Updated: December 5, 2025
Located in Montgomery, Mississippi, the Bogue Watershed Structure Y-30-058 Dam, also known as Groce Dam, was completed in 1961 by the USDA NRCS as a flood risk reduction measure along the TR- Little Bogue Creek.

Summary
This local government-owned earth dam stands at a height of 24 feet and has a storage capacity of 385 acre-feet, serving its primary purpose effectively. The dam is regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and has a low hazard potential with a moderate risk assessment rating.
With a design of buttress core type on a soil foundation, the Bogue Watershed Dam is uncontrolled spillway type and outlet gates, making it a crucial structure for flood risk reduction in the area. While the dam's condition assessment is currently not rated, it remains under the jurisdiction of the state and undergoes regular inspections, permitting, and enforcement by the relevant regulatory agencies. Despite its moderate risk assessment, the dam's operational efficiency and management measures are not explicitly outlined, suggesting the need for continued monitoring and maintenance 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.
