Sd Noname 110 dam
Sd Noname 110
Sd Noname 110, located in Pennington, South Dakota, is a privately owned earth dam completed in 1953 with a primary purpose that is not specified. This dam, standing at a height of 19 feet and spanning a length of 690 feet, serves as a crucial water resource structure along the TR-Rapid Creek. Managed by the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), this dam is regulated, inspected, and enforced by state authorities to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations.
With a storage capacity of 137 acre-feet, Sd Noname 110 plays a significant role in flood control and water management in the region. Despite its low hazard potential, the condition of this dam is currently not rated, highlighting the need for further assessment and monitoring. As a part of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the federal agency responsible for its design, Sd Noname 110 underscores the collaboration between private and public entities in safeguarding water resources and infrastructure in South Dakota.
Ensuring the safety and functionality of Sd Noname 110 is essential for mitigating risks and maintaining the integrity of this vital water infrastructure. With its location in a region prone to natural disasters, such as floods and droughts, the proper management and maintenance of this dam are crucial for protecting both the environment and the local community. By adhering to state regulations and implementing necessary risk management measures, Sd Noname 110 stands as a testament to the importance of sustainable water resource management in the face of changing climatic conditions.

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 Sd Noname 110
Where does the data for Sd Noname 110 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.
