Haegele Dam, located in Arapahoe, Nebraska, is a private-owned earth dam constructed in 1957 with a primary purpose other than flood control or water supply. The dam stands at 13 feet in height and spans 411 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 54 acre-feet. It is regulated by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its structural integrity.

Despite being classified with a low hazard potential, Haegele Dam has a poor condition assessment as of its last inspection in September 2018. The dam holds a normal storage of 39 acre-feet and is situated on TR-Muddy Creek, covering a drainage area of 0.5 square miles. The surrounding area is sparsely populated, with a surface area of 7 acres. The dam's emergency action plan status and risk assessment measures are currently unspecified.

With its historical significance dating back over six decades, Haegele Dam serves as a notable structure in the region's water resource management. Its design, construction, and regulatory oversight by the state of Nebraska make it a focal point for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the sustainable development and maintenance of dams in the area.
