Shiocton Mitigation, located in Shiocton, Wisconsin, is a state-regulated structure designed for water resource and climate mitigation. Owned by the state of Wisconsin and regulated by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WIDNR), this Earth-type dam stands at a height of 6.1 feet with a length of 19,952 feet. It has a storage capacity of 2,000 acre-feet and serves the primary purpose of controlled spillway for flood control.

Despite being assessed as in fair condition during the last inspection in June 2019, Shiocton Mitigation poses a low hazard potential and is deemed to have very high risk due to its critical role in mitigating water resource issues in the area. With a history of state inspection, permitting, and enforcement, this structure is actively managed to ensure its safety and effectiveness in managing water flow and climate-related challenges. The proximity of the dam to the Detroit District and the involvement of state agencies highlight the collaborative effort in water resource management in Outagamie County.

In the event of an emergency, the structure has protocols in place, although the last update to the Emergency Action Plan (EAP) was in 2013. With a focus on risk management and mitigation measures, Shiocton Mitigation serves as a vital infrastructure for the region, underlining the importance of proactive monitoring and maintenance to address the impacts of climate change and ensure the resilience of water resources in the area.
