Menomonie is a private hydroelectric dam located in Dunn County, Wisconsin, along the Red Cedar River. Built in 1848, this gravity dam stands at a height of 42 feet and has a structural height of 42 feet, with a length of 540 feet. It serves multiple purposes including hydroelectric power generation and recreation, with a normal storage capacity of 15,900 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 20,500 acre-feet.

With a high hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating, Menomonie dam is considered to be in a risky condition, although the condition assessment is currently not rated. The dam has not been inspected recently, with an inspection frequency of every 2 years. The emergency action plan (EAP) for the dam was last revised in December 2019, but it is unclear if it meets current guidelines. Despite these challenges, Menomonie dam continues to play a crucial role in water resource management and energy production in the area, under the jurisdiction of the state of Wisconsin and the oversight of the Detroit District of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
