About Floodly

The primary purpose of Floodly is flood risk reduction. The dam is designed to control downstream flooding by temporarily storing excess water during storms and releasing it at a controlled rate. The dam is owned by Haglof Ranch (private). It impounds the Tr-uall Creek.

The dam stands 12 feet tall and stretches 150 feet across, and has a maximum storage capacity of 76 acre-feet. Completed in 1940, the structure is well-established, with more than 75 years of service.

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.
