Managed by the USDA NRCS, this earth dam was completed in 1963 for flood risk reduction along the Horseshoe Canyon river or stream. With a dam height of 34 feet and a storage capacity of 453 acre-feet, this site plays a crucial role in protecting the surrounding area from potential flooding events.
The dam features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate for water management. Despite being rated as low hazard potential, the structure has not been assessed for condition or emergency action plan preparedness in recent years. With a risk assessment indicating a very high risk of failure, there is a need for increased inspection frequency and potential risk management measures to ensure the safety and functionality of SCS-Sugar Creek Site-007. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, monitoring and maintaining the integrity of this site is essential to safeguarding the local community and environment from the impacts of flooding.
