Summary
This private reservoir serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock watering, and small fish pond. With a capacity of 83 acre-feet, it primarily stores 33 acre-feet of water for these uses. The dam, constructed of earth, stands at a height of 15 feet, with a spillway width of 75 feet to manage a maximum discharge of 375 cfs.
Despite its low hazard potential, Haglof Reservoir is regulated by the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its safety and compliance with state regulations. The reservoir is situated on TR-U All Creek, within the jurisdiction of the state of Montana. With a drainage area of 2.97 square miles, Haglof Reservoir provides essential water resources to the local community while also contributing to the conservation and management of natural resources in the region.
Overall, Haglof Reservoir plays a crucial role in water resource management and climate adaptation efforts in Montana. As a key infrastructure for water storage, it helps support agricultural activities, wildlife habitat, and emergency fire response in the area. With its well-maintained dam and controlled spillway, the reservoir stands as a testament to the importance of sustainable water management practices in the face of changing climatic conditions.

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.
