About Lake Hogan Dam
The primary purpose of Lake Hogan Dam is fire protection, stock, or small fish pond. The dam maintains a small impoundment used for fire suppression, livestock watering, or as a fish pond. The dam is owned by Y N Miller (private). It impounds the Tr-north Prong Beaverdam Crk near Naylor.
The dam stands 24 feet tall, creates a reservoir covering 13 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 167 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 365 square miles. Completed in 1964, the structure is well into its service life at over 50 years old.
This dam carries a high hazard potential classification, which means that a failure or uncontrolled release of water would likely cause loss of human life. This classification reflects the consequences of failure, not the likelihood — it indicates that people live or work in the area downstream.
