Summary

This dam, with a significant hazard potential, has not been rated for its current condition as of the last inspection in 2003. While details on the dam's specifications such as height, volume, and purpose are not provided, it is clear that it plays a crucial role in water resource management in the region.

Despite lacking specific information on its design and function, Henrietta Dam's presence signifies the importance of water infrastructure in this area. The dam's association with the Omaha District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers suggests a connection to larger water management efforts. With its location and ownership status, Henrietta Dam serves as a focal point for understanding the complexities of water resource management in Utah.

For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Henrietta Dam represents a case study in the intersection of private ownership, state regulation, and potential environmental risks. As the dam awaits further assessment and potential updates, it stands as a reminder of the ongoing maintenance challenges and responsibilities associated with critical water infrastructure in the region.

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.
