Peabody Camp #11 Slurry Ii dam
Peabody Camp #11 Slurry Ii
Peabody Camp #11 Slurry II is a privately owned earth dam located in Waverly, Kentucky, along the Muddy Run. Constructed in 1976, this dam stands at 50 feet in height and has a storage capacity of 142 acre-feet. While its hazard potential is classified as low, the dam is regulated by the Kentucky Division of Water and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its structural integrity.
Despite being categorized as low risk, the dam at Peabody Camp #11 Slurry II poses a moderate risk according to a comprehensive risk assessment. The dam has not been rated for its condition, though it undergoes inspections every five years. Emergency action plans have not been prepared for this structure, and there is no information available regarding whether the existing plans meet established guidelines.
Despite its low hazard potential, the Peabody Camp #11 Slurry II dam still warrants attention due to its moderate risk assessment. As a privately owned structure in Kentucky, it is subject to state regulations and inspections to ensure its continued safety and functionality. The lack of emergency action plans highlights a potential area for improvement in the overall risk management of this dam.
Dam data reference
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.
- 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.
- 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.
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, environmental 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.

About Peabody Camp #11 Slurry Ii
Where does the data for Peabody Camp #11 Slurry Ii come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Low hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
