Healy, located in Ucross, Wyoming, along Clear Creek, is a privately owned earth dam completed in 1975 primarily used for irrigation purposes. With a height of 50 feet and a storage capacity of 6500 acre-feet, Healy plays a crucial role in providing water for agricultural activities in the region. The dam has a spillway width of 200 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 2800 cubic feet per second, ensuring efficient water management during periods of high flow.

Despite its importance in water resource management, Healy poses a high hazard potential due to its location and structural characteristics. Regular inspections and maintenance are conducted to ensure the dam's safety and functionality, with the last inspection date recorded in August 2021. The dam is regulated by the Wyoming State Engineer's Office, with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement measures in place to uphold safety standards. With its moderate risk assessment rating and risk management measures in place, Healy serves as a vital component of the water infrastructure in Johnson County, Wyoming, supporting not only irrigation but also fire protection, stock watering, and recreational activities.
