Causey is a captivating federal irrigation reservoir located in Huntsville, Utah, within the Weber County area. Managed by the Bureau of Reclamation, this earth dam structure stands at a height of 218 feet and has a hydraulic height of 187 feet, providing essential water storage for irrigation purposes since its completion in 1966. With a maximum storage capacity of 8730 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 7870 acre-feet, Causey Reservoir plays a crucial role in water resource management in the region.

Situated on the South Fork of the Ogden River, this reservoir covers a surface area of 136 acres and has a drainage area of 81 square miles. The dam is designed with an uncontrolled spillway and has a high hazard potential, making it vital for regular inspections and risk assessments. While the condition assessment is currently not available, Causey Reservoir is marked as a moderate risk (3) based on the risk assessment conducted. With its strategic location and significant contribution to irrigation needs, Causey is a key component of the water infrastructure in Utah.

Despite its importance, Causey Reservoir does not fall under state jurisdiction for regulation, permitting, or inspection. Managed solely by the Bureau of Reclamation, the reservoir's operations, regulatory affairs, and inspections are overseen by the federal agency. With Congressman Rob Bishop representing the area, Causey continues to serve as a critical resource for water supply and irrigation in the region, highlighting the intricate relationship between water resources, climate conditions, and federal management practices.
