Summary
While the dam serves a primary purpose of "Other," it also has a storage capacity of 430 acre-feet and is regulated by the Utah Division of Water Rights. The dam is situated in a remote area with no associated structures, and its last inspection date is not provided.
Despite its relatively low hazard potential, Goodfellow, Lynn 83r21 is subject to state regulation, inspection, and enforcement. The dam is not rated for its condition assessment, and it does not have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place. However, it meets guidelines for inspection frequency with a scheduled inspection every 5 years. The dam does not fall under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers and has not undergone any significant modifications since its completion.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Goodfellow, Lynn 83r21 presents an interesting case study of a privately owned dam in a rural area of Utah. With its location in a county known for its scenic beauty and natural resources, the dam serves as a reminder of the importance of proper regulation and monitoring to ensure the safety and integrity of water infrastructure. The lack of detailed data on the dam's condition and emergency preparedness highlights the ongoing need for transparency and accountability in managing water resources and infrastructure.

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.
