Summary
Standing at a height of 15 feet and stretching 700 feet in length, this dam boasts a storage capacity of 99 acre-feet and a surface area of 14 acres. Despite being unlisted and not regularly inspected by state agencies, its hazard potential is considered low, with a moderate risk assessment rating.
With an uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates, Robinson Pasture Pond Dam is designed with buttress core types on an unknown foundation. Although its condition assessment is not rated, the dam's risk management measures are currently unspecified. While the dam has not undergone any modifications or inspections recently, its moderate risk level indicates a need for ongoing monitoring and potential improvements to ensure the safety of its surrounding environment and water resources.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in exploring the intersection of dam infrastructure and recreational use, Robinson Pasture Pond Dam presents an intriguing case study. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's moderate risk assessment underscores the importance of continuous monitoring and risk management to mitigate potential threats to its structural integrity and surrounding ecosystem. As efforts to protect and sustain water resources continue to evolve, this privately owned dam serves as a reminder of the ongoing challenges and responsibilities associated with managing and maintaining critical infrastructure in a changing climate.

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.
