Anticline Disposal is a private water resource infrastructure located in Sublette, Wyoming, specifically designed for irrigation purposes. The dam, completed in 2005, stands at 25 feet tall and spans 3643 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 123.5 acre-feet. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam is classified as having poor condition, indicating a pressing need for maintenance and upgrades.

Situated on Jensen Draw (off channel), Anticline Disposal plays a crucial role in regulating water flow for agricultural activities in the region. However, the dam lacks key safety features such as a spillway, posing potential risks in the event of overflow or excessive water accumulation. With a high risk assessment rating, there is a pressing need for regulatory agencies like SEO and DEQ to conduct regular inspections and enforce necessary measures to ensure the safety and functionality of the structure.

As climate change continues to impact water resources and weather patterns, the importance of maintaining and upgrading critical infrastructure like Anticline Disposal cannot be overstated. With Liz Cheney (R) as the Congressional representative overseeing the area, there is an opportunity for collaboration and investment in sustainable water management practices to mitigate risks and safeguard the environment for future generations.
