West is a privately owned dam located in Crook, Wyoming, specifically in the city of Camp Crook. It was built in 1958 and serves multiple purposes, including fire protection, stock, and small fish pond management. The dam is classified as an Earth dam, with a height of 15 feet and a hydraulic height of 13 feet. It has a storage capacity of 196 acre-feet and covers a drainage area associated with Flat Creek.
Despite its age, West dam is in fair condition with a low hazard potential, according to the most recent inspection in August 2019. This structure has state jurisdiction and is regulated by the Wyoming State Engineer's Office. The dam is regularly inspected every five years to ensure its safety and functionality. With Liz Cheney (R) representing Congressional District 00, Wyoming, where the dam is situated, West plays a crucial role in water resource management for the local community.
