Durham Concert Site Dam And Dike dam
Durham Concert Site Dam And Dike
Durham Concert Site Dam and Dike, also known as Maldonado Dam and Dike, is a private water management structure located in Greene, New York. Completed in 2003, this earth dam stands at a height of 10 feet and has a length of 400 feet, providing a recreational area with a surface area of 20 acres along Bowery Creek. While its primary purpose is for recreation, the dam also serves as a crucial water resource for the surrounding area.
Managed by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC), the Durham Concert Site Dam and Dike is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by state authorities. With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating, this structure plays a vital role in water management while ensuring public safety. While the dam's condition is currently not rated, it is regularly monitored and maintained to meet safety standards.
Located within the Baltimore District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, this dam and dike complex is an essential part of the local water infrastructure. With its controlled spillway and storage capacity of 70 acre-feet, Durham Concert Site Dam and Dike provides both recreational opportunities and water resource management for the community.

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 Durham Concert Site Dam And Dike
Where does the data for Durham Concert Site Dam And Dike 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.
