Summary

Built in 1970, this private-owned earth dam stands at a height of 26 feet with a storage capacity of 125 acre-feet. The dam's primary purpose is to provide water supply, supporting the community's water needs and contributing to the local ecosystem's sustainability.

Despite its low hazard potential, Mononame 352 plays a significant role in managing water resources in the area. The dam overlooks TR James Branch and covers a drainage area of 314 square miles, ensuring a steady flow of water to meet the demand for agricultural, industrial, and residential use. With a normal storage capacity of 83 acre-feet, the dam acts as a reliable source of water for various purposes, contributing to the overall water security of the region.

While not regulated by the state, Mononame 352 stands as a testament to private sector involvement in water resource management. With its strategic location and functional design, this earth dam exemplifies the importance of sustainable water infrastructure in adapting to the challenges of a changing climate. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, the significance of such structures lies in their ability to safeguard water availability and support the resilience of communities in the face of environmental uncertainties.

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.
