Summary
While details like dam height, volume, and completion year are not provided, the dam is inspected regularly, with the last inspection conducted on October 20, 2020, indicating a commitment to safety and maintenance.
Despite being a non-federally regulated structure, the Midland Multi-Modal Industrial Park Swm Dam holds a significant hazard potential, emphasizing the importance of its condition assessment and emergency preparedness. The dam is not currently rated for its condition, but steps towards risk management and emergency action planning could enhance its safety and resilience. With its strategic location within the industrial park, this dam plays a crucial role in water resource management and climate resilience efforts in the region.
Enthusiasts of water resources and climate resilience will find the Midland Multi-Modal Industrial Park Swm Dam an intriguing subject of study. Its unique characteristics, such as being Earth-built and associated with the UT to Far Branch waterway, offer insights into local water management practices. The dam's hazard potential and lack of federal regulation also present opportunities for further research into risk assessment and mitigation strategies in non-federally regulated water structures.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo 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
HighDams 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.
