Elsie is a privately owned Earth dam located in Converse, Wyoming, specifically in the city of Douglas along Moss Agate Creek. Completed in 1975, this irrigation dam stands at a height of 39 feet with a hydraulic height of 34 feet and a length of 328 feet. It has a storage capacity of 51 acre-feet and serves the purpose of irrigation for the surrounding area.

Despite its significant hazard potential and poor condition assessment, Elsie has a moderate risk assessment rating of 3. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 30 feet and an outlet gate consisting of one valve. The last inspection was conducted in October 2018, with an inspection frequency of 5 years. Elsie is regulated by the State Engineer's Office and is subject to permitting, inspection, and enforcement by the state regulatory agency.

Elsie's location in the Omaha District and its association with the USACE (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) make it a crucial water resource for the region. Enthusiasts interested in water resource management and climate impacts on dams would find Elsie's structural details and operational aspects intriguing, especially considering its importance for irrigation purposes in the area.
