Johnson and completed in 1990. This public utility facility plays a vital role in treating wastewater from the surrounding area before releasing it back into the environment. The facility is state-regulated and permitted, with inspections and enforcement in place to ensure its operations meet high standards.
Situated along Bitter Creek, a tributary of the Green River, Intercity Wastewater Treatment (Cell 2) has a low hazard potential and fair condition assessment. With a dam height of 10 feet and a storage capacity of 529 acre-feet, the facility covers a surface area of 39 acres and serves the community of Rock Springs. Despite its relatively low risk level, the facility undergoes regular inspections and has emergency protocols in place to mitigate any potential hazards.
Intercity Wastewater Treatment (Cell 2) is a crucial component of the local water resource management system, ensuring the safe treatment and disposal of wastewater in Sweetwater County, Wyoming. With its strategic location and effective design, this facility plays a key role in protecting the environment and public health while meeting the regulatory standards set by the state.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
