Fox Farm is a privately-owned earth dam located in Campbell County, Wyoming, specifically in the city of Powder River. Built in 1957, the dam serves multiple purposes, including fire protection, stock, and as a small fish pond. With a height of 30 feet and a hydraulic height of 25 feet, Fox Farm has a storage capacity of 46 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 27 acre-feet. The dam covers a surface area of 3 acres and spans a length of 325 feet.
Despite its low hazard potential, Fox Farm is rated as having poor structural condition as of the last inspection conducted in August 2017. The dam has an uncontrolled spillway type with a width of 25 feet. While the risk assessment for the dam is moderate, there are no inundation maps prepared, and the emergency action plan status is unknown. With its location in the Fox Farm Draw river/stream and within the jurisdiction of the State of Wyoming, Fox Farm is an important part of the local water resource infrastructure, but its condition and maintenance may warrant further attention from water resource and climate enthusiasts.
