This earth dam stands at 30 feet high and spans 300 feet in length, providing a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet. Situated on the Clift Coulee river, the reservoir serves as a vital water source for the city of Galata, ensuring water availability for firefighting and agricultural purposes.
Managed by the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC), Mcintyre Reservoir is regulated, inspected, and enforced to meet state standards, with a significant hazard potential due to its age and condition assessment being not rated. The dam's emergency action plan and risk management measures are not yet fully documented, highlighting the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance. Despite not being under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers, the reservoir plays a crucial role in water management and conservation efforts in the region, making it a key asset for local water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor and support.
