Summary
Built in 1959, this earth dam stands at 17 feet high and spans 685 feet in length, providing a storage capacity of 102 acre-feet. While it has a low hazard potential and is currently not rated for condition assessment, the dam is regulated and inspected by the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources to ensure its safety and compliance with state regulations.
Managed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, Sd Noname 132 serves as an essential infrastructure for water resource management in the region. With a maximum discharge capacity of 1000 cubic feet per second, the dam plays a crucial role in flood control, irrigation, and water supply. While the dam's emergency action plan and risk assessment details are yet to be updated, its presence underscores the importance of sustainable water management practices in the face of changing climate patterns.
Located within the Omaha District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Sd Noname 132 stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts between private owners and federal agencies in ensuring the resilience of water infrastructure in South Dakota. As climate enthusiasts and water resource advocates continue to monitor and address the challenges posed by a changing climate, Sd Noname 132 serves as a vital piece of the puzzle in safeguarding water resources for future generations.

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.
