Summary

is a privately owned water resource infrastructure in Cache, Utah, regulated by the Utah Division of Water Rights. The dam primarily serves an irrigation purpose and is classified as an Earth type structure with a hydraulic height of 13 feet and a structural height of 15 feet. The dam has a storage capacity of 95 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 2 cubic feet per second. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's condition assessment has not been rated, and it is subject to inspection every 5 years.

Located at coordinates 41.75278771° N, -111.8626534° W, Gossner Foods INC. plays a vital role in water management within the region. Owned and operated privately, the dam has not undergone modifications in recent years and does not fall under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers. With a history shrouded in mystery regarding its completion year, the dam stands at 621 feet in length and is situated in the Omaha District with Congressman Rob Bishop representing the area.

Water resource and climate enthusiasts intrigued by the intricate details of water infrastructure will find Gossner Foods INC. a fascinating subject. Though its risk potential is deemed low, the dam's condition assessment and emergency preparedness status remain undisclosed. As an essential component of irrigation in Cache, Utah, this privately owned water structure warrants further inspection and analysis to ensure its continued functionality and safety for the surrounding community.

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.
