Summary
Built in 1961 by the USDA NRCS, this earth dam stands at a height of 40 feet and spans 3,300 feet in length, providing flood risk reduction along TR-Goose Creek. The dam has a storage capacity of 2,616 acre-feet and a surface area of 43 acres, serving as a crucial infrastructure for water resource management in the region.
Despite its age, SCS-Upper Clear Boggy Creek Site-09 has a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its current condition. The dam is equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate for water release. Regular inspections are conducted every five years, with the last inspection dating back to January 1, 1980. With a very high risk assessment rating of 1, it is essential for the authorities to ensure the proper maintenance and risk management measures are in place to safeguard the surrounding communities and environment from potential hazards.
Managed by the OWRB and falling under the jurisdiction of the state, this dam plays a vital role in flood control and water resource management within the region. As climate change continues to impact weather patterns and water availability, the significance of structures like SCS-Upper Clear Boggy Creek Site-09 becomes increasingly important in ensuring the resilience of communities and ecosystems against the challenges of a changing climate.

Dam Data Reference
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.
