Coyote is a privately owned earth dam located in Uinta, Wyoming, with a primary purpose of irrigation. Built in 1962, the dam stands at a height of 8 feet and has a hydraulic height of 5 feet, with a structural length of 360 feet. The dam is situated on Coyote Spring, serving as a vital water resource for the surrounding area.
Despite its low hazard potential, Coyote Dam is in poor condition as of the last inspection in November 2017. The dam has a normal storage capacity of 74 acre-feet and a surface area of 14 acres. With an uncontrolled spillway type and one valve outlet gate, the dam poses a moderate risk (rating of 3) in terms of its overall safety. It is crucial for water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor and address the maintenance and rehabilitation needs of Coyote Dam to ensure its continued functionality and safety for irrigation purposes in the region.
