Chambers Creek Ws Scs Gss 12 dam
Chambers Creek Ws Scs Gss 12
Chambers Creek WS SCS Gss 12, located in Johnson County, Texas, is a local government-owned earth dam with a primary purpose classified as 'Other.' Constructed in 1989 by USDA NRCS, this dam stands at a height of 34 feet and has a length of 950 feet, serving a drainage area of 602 square miles. With a storage capacity of 169 acre-feet, this dam plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the region.
The dam, situated on TR-TURKEY CREEK, is regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement in place. Despite having a spillway width of zero, the dam's risk assessment is categorized as high (2), emphasizing the importance of effective risk management measures. With its condition currently unrated and hazard potential not available, maintaining the structural integrity of Chambers Creek WS SCS Gss 12 remains a key priority for ensuring public safety and efficient water resource management.
While lacking certain details such as a condition assessment date and emergency action plan information, Chambers Creek WS SCS Gss 12 remains a significant structure in the area's water infrastructure. As climate change continues to impact water resources, understanding and addressing the risks associated with dams like this one are essential for sustainable water management practices in the face of a changing climate.
Dam data reference
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 Chambers Creek Ws Scs Gss 12
Where does the data for Chambers Creek Ws Scs Gss 12 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 Not Available 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.
