This earth dam stands at a height of 31 feet and spans 278 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 17 acre-feet and a drainage area of 38.4 square miles. Despite being privately owned and not regulated by the state, the dam has a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating.
The dam features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 26 feet and has not been rated for its current condition. The last inspection in 2004 revealed no significant issues, but the inspection frequency is listed as 0, indicating a potential lapse in monitoring. While it lacks outlet gates and emergency action plans, the dam serves as a critical infrastructure for managing water resources in the area and protecting against potential flooding events. Overall, Janice Rosier Lake Dam presents an intriguing case study for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the intersection of dam safety and environmental conservation efforts.
