South 336th Street Stormwater Dam No 2 dam
South 336th Street Stormwater Dam No 2
South 336th Street Stormwater Dam No 2, also known as Wetland 2 Rsf Kitts Corner, is a privately owned structure located in Fife, Washington. This earth dam, completed in 1996, serves the primary purpose of a Fish and Wildlife Pond, while also contributing to Flood Risk Reduction in the area. Situated on Hylebos Creek, the dam has a hydraulic height of 19 feet and a storage capacity of 49 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 4.19 feet.
Despite its fair condition assessment as of March 2018, South 336th Street Stormwater Dam No 2 poses a high hazard potential, emphasizing the importance of regular inspections and maintenance. The dam covers a surface area of 2 acres and has a drainage area of 0.59 square miles, with a maximum discharge capacity of 430 cubic feet per second. The structure is regulated by the Washington Department of Ecology, ensuring compliance with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement requirements.
The dam's location within Congressional District 09, Washington, under the representation of Adam Smith (D), further highlights the significance of its role in water resource management and climate resilience. As a crucial component in the local ecosystem, South 336th Street Stormwater Dam No 2 serves as a vital habitat for fish and wildlife, while also playing a key role in mitigating flood risks in the region. Its operational and regulatory framework underscores the collaborative efforts between private ownership and state agencies in safeguarding water resources and enhancing environmental sustainability.
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 South 336th Street Stormwater Dam No 2
Where does the data for South 336th Street Stormwater Dam No 2 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.
