Summary
Built in 1961, this earth dam stands at a height of 36 feet and spans a length of 450 feet, with a storage capacity of 120 acre-feet. Despite its age, the dam is in satisfactory condition and has a low hazard potential, ensuring the safety of the surrounding community in the city of ARKOE.
Managed by the USDA NRCS, this dam serves multiple purposes beyond flood control, with a normal storage capacity of 37 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 723 cubic feet per second. The dam's spillway, of uncontrolled type, has a width of 40 feet, providing additional safety measures in case of emergencies. Regular inspections ensure that the dam meets regulatory standards, making it a crucial component of water resource management in Missouri.
With a moderate risk assessment rating, the 102 River Tributaries Dam # 13 is a key infrastructure project in the region, overseen by the DAM AND RESERVOIR SAFETY PROG. Its strategic location and design reflect a commitment to sustainable water resource management, highlighting the importance of maintaining and investing in critical infrastructure to mitigate the impact of climate change on local communities.

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.
