Summary
This earth dam, designed by USDA NRCS, stands at a height of 23 feet and has a structural height of 25 feet. With a storage capacity of 72 acre-feet and a drainage area of 200 acres, this dam plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the region.
The dam, situated on the TR-BRUSH CR stream, features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 70 feet. Despite being rated as having a low hazard potential, the dam's risk assessment is moderate. With a maximum discharge of 490 cubic feet per second, Tabo Creek Watershed Dam B-22 contributes to flood control efforts in the area. While the condition assessment is not rated and there are no recent inspection dates available, this dam remains an important infrastructure for the community of NORBORNE.
Tabo Creek Watershed Dam B-22, owned by the local government, is a key component of water resource management in Lafayette County. With its stone core and soil foundation, this dam not only provides grade stabilization but also helps in regulating water flow and mitigating flood risks in the region. As an essential piece of infrastructure, its role in protecting the community and the environment cannot be understated.

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.
