Summary

2 is a private earth dam located in Wilkinson, Mississippi, along the Buffalo River. With a dam height of 34 feet and a hydraulic height of 32.5 feet, this structure has a maximum storage capacity of 144.14 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 105.76 acre-feet, covering a surface area of 6.14 acres. The dam serves a primary purpose of "Other" and is classified as having a low hazard potential with a moderate risk assessment rating.

Despite not being regulated or permitted by the state, Crosby Frac Pond No. 2 is considered to be in good condition and has not been rated for its current status. With no recent inspection data available, the emergency action plan and risk management measures for this dam are also unknown. While the structure is uncontrolled by a spillway, its risk assessment indicates a moderate level of potential danger, suggesting the need for close monitoring and maintenance to ensure the safety of nearby water resources and surrounding communities.

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.
