Robins Ridge Golf Club Lake No. 2 Dam dam
Robins Ridge Golf Club Lake No. 2 Dam
Robins Ridge Golf Club Lake No. 2 Dam in Senecaville, Ohio is a privately owned earth dam that serves primarily for recreational purposes. Situated in Guernsey County, this dam is regulated by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and undergoes regular state inspections and enforcement. With a height of 27.8 feet and a storage capacity of 46.5 acre-feet, the dam provides a surface area of 4.1 acres for recreational activities such as fishing and boating.
The dam's low hazard potential and fair condition assessment make it a relatively safe structure, with a last inspection date in November 2017. The dam has a drainage area of 0.05 square miles and a maximum discharge capacity of 721 cubic feet per second. While no spillway type is specified, the dam's design and construction meet state permitting and regulatory requirements, ensuring its reliability in managing water resources for the surrounding area.
Located near a tributary to Seneca Fork Wills Creek, Robins Ridge Golf Club Lake No. 2 Dam contributes to the local ecosystem and provides water-based recreational opportunities for visitors. With its scenic surroundings and importance for both water resource management and climate adaptation, this dam serves as a valuable asset for enthusiasts interested in sustainable water usage and environmental conservation efforts.
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 Robins Ridge Golf Club Lake No. 2 Dam
Where does the data for Robins Ridge Golf Club Lake No. 2 Dam 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.
