Summary

- Crane is a private irrigation structure located in Evanston, Utah, along Crane Creek. Managed by the Utah Division of Water Rights, this earth dam was completed in 1900 and serves the primary purpose of irrigation. With a capacity of 776 acre-feet of storage, it plays a crucial role in supporting agricultural activities in the region.

The dam stands at a height of 12 feet with a hydraulic height of 8 feet, spanning a length of 425 feet. Despite its age, Farmland Reserve, INC. - Crane has a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its condition. Regular inspections are conducted every 5 years to ensure its structural integrity and safety for surrounding communities. The dam has not undergone any major modifications over the years and continues to provide vital water resources for the area.

Located in Rich County, Utah, this irrigation structure is part of a network of water management systems that contribute to sustainable agriculture practices in the region. With its historical significance and ongoing role in water resource management, Farmland Reserve, INC. - Crane remains a key asset for supporting the local economy and adapting to the challenges of climate change.

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.
