Sawmill is a privately owned dam located in Campbell County, Wyoming, specifically in the city of Powderville. Built in 1964, this earth dam serves multiple purposes including fire protection and providing water for stock or small fish ponds. With a height of 24 feet and a length of 407 feet, Sawmill Draw reservoir has a storage capacity of 50 acre-feet and a surface area of 3 acres.
Despite its low hazard potential, Sawmill dam is currently in poor condition and was last inspected in August 2017. The dam has an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 50 feet and no outlet gates. The risk assessment for Sawmill indicates a moderate level of risk, with a need for improved risk management measures. Although it is not owned or funded by any federal agency, the dam falls under state regulation and is subject to regular inspection and enforcement.
Sawmill dam plays a crucial role in providing fire protection and water resources for the local area. However, with its poor condition and moderate risk level, there is a need for attention and potential upgrades to ensure the safety and functionality of this important water infrastructure in Wyoming.
