Summary

Constructed in 1940, this earth dam stands at 22 feet high and stretches 550 feet in length. It has a storage capacity of 770 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 40 acre-feet. Despite its age, the dam is deemed to have a low hazard potential and is currently rated as "Not Rated" in terms of its condition assessment.

Managed by the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Sd Noname 152 is subject to state regulation, permitting, inspection, and enforcement. The dam falls under the jurisdiction of the St. Paul District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, and is represented by Congressman Dusty Johnson (R). While the dam does not have a designated primary purpose or specific core types, it plays a crucial role in water resource management and climate resilience efforts in the region.

Although certain details such as the last inspection date, condition assessment date, and emergency action plan status are not provided in the data, Sd Noname 152 remains an essential piece of infrastructure in the area. With its historical significance and ongoing regulatory oversight, this dam serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining and monitoring water resources for the benefit of both the local community and the environment.

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.
