Leck Mayes, a state-owned dam in Wyoming, stands as a vital structure in the conservation efforts for fish and wildlife in the area. Designed by Victor E. Anderson and completed in 1992, this earth dam holds a hydraulic height of 6 feet and a structural height of 8 feet, with a total length of 3050 feet. Its primary purpose as a Fish and Wildlife Pond reflects its commitment to supporting the local ecosystem.
Located in Big Horn, Wyoming, Leck Mayes Draw serves as a crucial water resource with a storage capacity of 166 acre-feet. Despite its poor condition assessment, the dam has a low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment level. With a spillway width of 50 feet and an uncontrolled outlet gate, Leck Mayes is equipped to manage potential water discharge events effectively.
Although last inspected in May 2017, with an inspection frequency of 5 years, Leck Mayes remains under the jurisdiction and regulatory oversight of the State of Wyoming. With its unique design features and contributions to wildlife conservation, this dam continues to play a significant role in water resource management in the region.
