Figor is a privately-owned hydroelectric dam located on the Middle Br Duck Creek in Wisconsin. Constructed in 1855, this gravity dam stands at 10 feet high and spans a length of 600 feet, with a storage capacity of 220 acre-feet. The dam serves multiple purposes, including hydroelectric power generation and recreation, and is regulated by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Figor is considered to have a very high risk due to its age and condition assessment of fair. The dam has undergone modifications in 1961 and is inspected every 10 years, with the last assessment conducted in May 2020. While the dam meets regulatory guidelines, there are currently no emergency action plans or inundation maps prepared for the site.

In the event of any emergencies or incidents, Figor's owners and operators must ensure that risk management measures are in place to mitigate potential risks to the surrounding area. With its historical significance and continued operation for over a century, Figor remains a critical water resource infrastructure in Columbia, Wisconsin, under the purview of state regulatory agencies.
