Summary
Built in 1992, this private-owned earth dam stands at a height of 33 feet and stretches 323 feet in length, providing a storage capacity of 53 acre-feet and a drainage area of 300 acres. The dam's primary purpose is to prevent erosion and maintain stability in the surrounding area, making it an essential asset for water resource management in the region.
Despite its relatively low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, Hubbartt Dam has not been rated for its condition assessment. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 10 feet and has no outlet gates or associated structures. While the dam has not undergone recent inspections or maintenance updates, it remains a key infrastructure for water management in the Kansas City District. With its strategic location and design, Hubbartt Dam plays a vital role in safeguarding the local ecosystem and ensuring the efficient flow of water resources in the area.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Hubbartt Dam represents a notable example of earth dam construction for grade stabilization purposes. Situated in a picturesque setting in Taylor, Missouri, this dam showcases the importance of sustainable water management practices and the need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure its long-term efficiency and safety. As a critical infrastructure in the region, Hubbartt Dam serves as a reminder of the intricate balance between human development and environmental conservation in water resource management.

Dam Data Reference
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.
