Summary

Built in 1979, this dam stands at a structural height of 18 feet with a hydraulic height of 16.5 feet, providing a storage capacity of 26 acre-feet. The dam covers a surface area of 3.6 acres and serves a primary purpose classified as "Other".

Despite being privately owned, Carroll's of Warsaw Cp-8-B is subject to state inspection and enforcement, with its last inspection conducted in October 2013, resulting in a fair condition assessment. The dam has a significant hazard potential, highlighting the need for regular monitoring and maintenance to ensure public safety and prevent potential risks. Although there are no associated structures or locks, the dam plays a crucial role in water resource management within the region.

As water resource and climate enthusiasts, understanding the significance of structures like Carroll's of Warsaw Cp-8-B is essential in safeguarding our natural environment and water supply. By staying informed about the condition and maintenance of such dams, we can contribute to sustainable water management practices and help mitigate potential hazards associated with aging infrastructure.

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. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
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. Investigations and studies are necessary.
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.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.

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, environment 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.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
