Summary

This earth dam, with a height of 24 feet, has a storage capacity of 117.43 acre-feet and a surface area of 7 acres. The dam is regulated by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its safety and compliance with state regulations.

Despite its moderate risk assessment rating, the dam has a high hazard potential, indicating the need for careful monitoring and maintenance. While the condition of the dam is currently not rated, the emergency action plan (EAP) status and risk management measures are not specified in the data. With a spillway type of "Uncontrolled," the dam's design and structural features suggest a focus on managing potential flooding and excess water discharge.

In the event of an emergency, it is crucial for the stakeholders and owners of Will Bond INCorporated Pond #2 Dam to have an updated and effective EAP in place. With its location in a high-risk area and the potential for significant consequences in case of failure, proactive risk management and regular assessments are essential to ensure the safety of the surrounding community and the longevity of the dam structure.

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.
