Summary

With a dam height of 16 feet and a storage capacity of 51 acre-feet, this earth dam serves primarily for recreational purposes. The structure is owned privately and is not regulated by the state, with a low hazard potential and a condition assessment that is currently not rated. Despite its age, Mononame 267 continues to provide essential recreational opportunities to the local community.

Managed by the Kansas City District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Mononame 267 stands as a testament to sustainable water resource management in the region. The dam's low hazard potential indicates a low risk of failure, ensuring the safety of the surrounding area. While the dam's condition assessment is yet to be rated, regular inspections and maintenance are crucial to ensuring its long-term functionality and safety for both recreational users and the environment.

As a symbol of the importance of water resources and climate resilience, Mononame 267 serves as a valuable recreational asset in Washington, Missouri. With its earth dam structure and buttress core type, the dam continues to provide essential water storage and recreational opportunities for the community. Despite its age, the dam's low hazard potential and ongoing management by the US Army Corps of Engineers demonstrate a commitment to sustainable water resource management and climate adaptation in the region.

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.
