Summary

Constructed in 1984 by Stanley Consultants Inc, this earth dam stands at a height of 14 feet and has a storage capacity of 237 acre-feet. Serving as a critical element in the Muddy River-Os watershed, the dam plays a crucial role in water management and flood control in the region.

With a fair condition assessment and low hazard potential, Rgs Pond C2 Dam has undergone structural and hydraulic modifications in 2002 to ensure its continued reliability and safety. Despite its lack of a spillway, the dam's risk assessment shows a high level of risk, indicating the importance of ongoing monitoring and management measures. As a key component of the local water infrastructure, this dam underscores the importance of sustainable water resource management in the face of climate change and increasing water variability.

Managed by the Nevada Department of Water Resources, Rgs Pond C2 Dam stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts between state agencies and public utilities in safeguarding water resources. As climate enthusiasts and water resource advocates, it is essential to recognize the critical role that infrastructure like Rgs Pond C2 Dam plays in ensuring water security and resilience in the face of a changing climate.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
