Summary

George City - Navajo D.B. is a privately owned dam located in Washington, Utah, specifically in the city of Bloomington. Constructed in 2002 for flood risk reduction, this Earth-type dam stands at a hydraulic height of 8 feet and a structural height of 12 feet, with a length of 972 feet. It has a maximum storage capacity of 28 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 19.88 acre-feet, serving the purpose of mitigating flood risks in the area.

Managed by the Utah Division of Water Rights, St. George City - Navajo D.B. is subject to state regulations, inspections, and enforcement to ensure its safety and functionality. With a high hazard potential but a satisfactory condition assessment, this dam plays a crucial role in protecting the surrounding areas from potential flooding events. Its last inspection was conducted in November 2020, with a frequency of every 2 years to monitor its performance and address any maintenance needs.

Located within the Los Angeles District, this dam is a key infrastructure contributing to water resource management in the region. With its strategic location and design specifications, St. George City - Navajo D.B. serves as a vital component in the overall flood risk reduction strategy for the area, highlighting the importance of proper dam maintenance and regulatory oversight in ensuring water security and climate resilience.

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.
