Summary

Completed in 1959, this dam stands at 37 feet tall with a hydraulic height of 28 feet and a structural height of 37 feet. It has a length of 740 feet and a storage capacity of 291 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 45 acre-feet.

The dam features a controlled spillway with a width of 1 foot and an outlet gate with a single valve. While the hazard potential is rated as low, the risk assessment indicates a very high risk level of 1. The last inspection of the dam was conducted in January 1980, with an inspection frequency of 5 years. The condition assessment is currently listed as "Not Rated", and emergency preparedness measures such as an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) and inundation maps are not reported to be in place.

Overall, SCS-Fast Runner Creek Site-2 serves a crucial purpose in flood risk reduction in the region, supported by the state regulatory agency OWRB. With its strategic location and design, this dam plays a significant role in managing water resources and mitigating potential flood hazards along TR-DRY CREEK. Its history of construction and operational details make it a noteworthy site for water resource and climate enthusiasts to study and appreciate.

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.
