Enterprise Partners Finish 1 Lagoon Dam dam
Enterprise Partners Finish 1 Lagoon Dam
Enterprise Partners Finish 1 Lagoon Dam, located in McCook, Nebraska, is a privately owned earth dam completed in the year 2000. With a dam height of 34 feet and a hydraulic height of 33 feet, this structure serves various purposes, including water storage and management for the surrounding area. The dam has a low hazard potential and is in satisfactory condition, as per the last assessment in November 2018.
Managed by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources, this dam plays a crucial role in regulating water flow along the TR-Blackwood Creek, providing essential support for local ecosystems and agricultural activities. The dam's design incorporates stone core types and soil foundations, with a storage capacity of 274 acre-feet and a surface area of 15 acres. Despite having a low hazard potential, the dam is subject to regular inspections and maintenance to ensure its continued safety and functionality.
The Enterprise Partners Finish 1 Lagoon Dam stands as a testament to private sector involvement in water resource management and infrastructure development. Its strategic location and design contribute to the overall water security and climate resilience of the Perkins County area in Nebraska. With state regulation and enforcement in place, this dam serves as a vital asset for the community, highlighting the importance of sustainable water management practices in the face of changing climatic conditions.

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 Enterprise Partners Finish 1 Lagoon Dam
Where does the data for Enterprise Partners Finish 1 Lagoon Dam 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.
