About Gary Neumann Dam

The primary purpose of Gary Neumann Dam is grade stabilization. Grade stabilization dams prevent erosion by reducing the slope and velocity of water flowing through a channel. They're commonly used to stop gullies from deepening and to protect downstream land and infrastructure. The dam is owned by Gary Neumann (private). It impounds the Tr-medicine near Galt.

The dam stands 29 feet tall and stretches 386 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 4 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 23 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 89 square miles. Completed in 2002, the structure is relatively new.

This dam has a low hazard potential classification, meaning that failure would cause minimal damage, limited primarily to the dam owner's property, with no expected loss of life. The most recent inspection on record was 12/10/2002. That was over 23 years ago.
