Stalder Cattle Company Lagoon 1 & 2 Dam dam
Stalder Cattle Company Lagoon 1 & 2 Dam
Stalder Cattle Company Lagoon 1 & 2 Dam, located in Richardson County, Nebraska, serves as a crucial water resource for the area. Completed in 2006, this earth dam stands at a height of 16 feet and has a storage capacity of 101 acre-feet. The dam primarily functions for purposes other than irrigation or flood control, emphasizing its importance in managing water resources for the region.
Managed by a private owner, Stalder Cattle Company Lagoon 1 & 2 Dam is regulated by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its safety and structural integrity. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam is rated as being in satisfactory condition as of the last assessment in 2017. With a drainage area of 0.2 square miles and a surface area of 6 acres, the dam plays a vital role in maintaining water quality and availability in the surrounding area.
Situated on TR-ROCK CREEK, this dam contributes to the overall water management system in the region, enhancing resilience to climate variability and supporting agricultural activities. With its strategic location and design features, Stalder Cattle Company Lagoon 1 & 2 Dam represents a key component of the local water infrastructure, highlighting the importance of sustainable water resource management in the face of changing climate 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 Stalder Cattle Company Lagoon 1 & 2 Dam
Where does the data for Stalder Cattle Company Lagoon 1 & 2 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.
