Summary

Constructed in 1955, the reservoir stands at 30 feet in height and stretches 625 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 355 acre-feet and a surface area of 23.75 acres. Positioned on the Noti Creek, the reservoir plays a vital role in supporting agricultural activities in the region.

Despite its low hazard potential and the absence of a formal condition assessment, Carroll Reservoir is regulated and inspected by the Oregon Water Resources Department. The dam's emergency action plan status is undetermined, with no recent updates on emergency contacts or risk management measures reported. The reservoir's location in the picturesque city of Crow adds to its charm, making it an intriguing destination for water resource and climate enthusiasts.

With its scenic surroundings and essential role in supporting local agriculture, Carroll Reservoir stands as a testament to sustainable water management practices in Oregon. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the resilience and maintenance of structures like Carroll Reservoir become increasingly crucial. To ensure the long-term sustainability of this important water source, ongoing regulatory oversight, inspection, and emergency preparedness are essential.

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.
