Summary
Built in 1956 by the USDA NRCS, this dam serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock, and as a small fish pond. With a height of 15 feet and a length of 275 feet, it has a storage capacity of 101 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 270 cubic feet per second.
Situated on the Antelope Coulee river or stream, Froze-To-Death #7 is regulated by the DNRC and falls under the jurisdiction of the state of Montana. With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating of 3, this dam is currently in a not rated condition assessment status. Despite lacking specific information on inspections, emergency action plans, and risk management measures, this dam remains a significant structure for fire protection and water resource management in the area.
Owned privately, Froze-To-Death #7 plays a crucial role in the local community's water resource management and disaster preparedness. Although it may require further evaluation and maintenance, its existence serves as a vital component in safeguarding against potential hazards and ensuring water availability for various purposes in the region.

Dam Data Reference
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.
