Summary

1, located in Woodruff, Utah, is a privately owned irrigation dam completed in 1873 on the Lake Hollow river or stream. This earth dam stands at a hydraulic height of 14 feet and a structural height of 17 feet, with a length of 270 feet and a maximum storage capacity of 992 acre-feet. The dam serves the primary purpose of irrigation, with a normal storage capacity of 50 acre-feet and a drainage area of 2.4 square miles.

Managed by the Utah Division of Water Rights and regulated by the state, Farmland Reserve INC - Lake Hollow No. 1 has a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its condition assessment. The dam has not been modified in recent years and is subject to inspections every five years, with the last inspection conducted in June 2017. While the dam does not have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) prepared or updated, it meets state regulatory guidelines and has not been assigned a Dam Safety Action Classification (DSAC) as of yet.

Overall, Farmland Reserve INC - Lake Hollow No. 1 plays a crucial role in providing water for irrigation in the area, with a history dating back to the 19th century. While it has not been assessed for its current condition, the dam remains operational and low-risk based on available data. Its location in Rich County, Utah, underscores its importance in the local water resource management system.

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.
