Summary

Operated by a public utility, this dam has a storage capacity of 75 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 21.7 acres. Classified as a buttress type dam, it stands as a crucial infrastructure for water management in the region.

Although the dam has not been rated for its condition assessment, it has been designated as having a significant hazard potential. This highlights the importance of regular inspections and maintenance to ensure its structural integrity and the safety of surrounding areas. The dam is not regulated by the state and does not have a designated primary purpose, emphasizing the need for continued monitoring and oversight by the responsible authorities.

Located in the Rock Island District, Associated Electric Pi 2-61 plays a vital role in water resource management in Missouri. Despite lacking certain details and assessments, it remains a key structure in the region and underscores the importance of water conservation and climate resilience efforts. For enthusiasts of water resources and climate issues, this dam serves as a focal point for understanding the complexities and challenges of managing water infrastructure in a changing climate.

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.
