Summary

Built in 1934 by the CCC, this earth dam stands at a height of 10 feet and spans 200 feet in length. It has a storage capacity of 170 acre-feet and is regulated by the NDSWC, ensuring that it meets all state permitting, inspection, and enforcement requirements.

Despite its low hazard potential, Nd No Name 122 is classified as having a high risk level due to its condition assessment being marked as "Not Rated." While it lacks an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) and inundation maps, the dam's risk management measures are not specified, leaving room for improvement in its safety protocols. The dam is not associated with the US Army Corps of Engineers and does not have a spillway, outlet gates, or locks.

Overall, Nd No Name 122 serves as a vital recreational resource in North Dakota, but its risk assessment highlights the need for enhanced safety measures and emergency preparedness. With its rich history dating back to the 1930s, this dam stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the CCC's contributions to water resource management. Climate and water enthusiasts may find interest in the ongoing efforts to ensure the safety and sustainability of Nd No Name 122 for future generations to enjoy.

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.
