Rogue Creek Upper Dam (Imcompleted) dam
Rogue Creek Upper Dam (Imcompleted)
Rogue Creek Upper Dam, located in Missouri, is an incomplete structure with a primary purpose of recreation. The dam, owned by a private entity, stands at a height of 17 feet and has a storage capacity of 109 acre-feet. Situated on the Rogue Creek, it covers a surface area of 12 acres and serves a drainage area of 555 square miles.
Despite its incomplete status, Rogue Creek Upper Dam poses a high hazard potential. With a condition assessment of 'Not Rated', the dam's safety and stability remain a concern. The dam has not been inspected or assessed for risk management measures, making its current state uncertain. However, the dam's location in Washington County, Missouri, offers great potential for recreational activities once completed, attracting water resource and climate enthusiasts alike.
Efforts towards completing and ensuring the safety of Rogue Creek Upper Dam could provide valuable recreational opportunities for the community while also addressing the potential hazards associated with the structure. Enthusiasts in the water resource and climate sectors would find interest in monitoring the progress and safety measures taken for this dam, as it has the potential to contribute positively to the local environment and economy once fully operational.

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 Rogue Creek Upper Dam (Imcompleted)
Where does the data for Rogue Creek Upper Dam (Imcompleted) 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 High 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.
