Flood Hydrology and Dam-Breach Hydraulic Analyses of Four Reservoirs in the Black Hills, South Dakota (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781499553253)

Extensive information about the construction of dams or potential downstream hazards in the event of a dam breach is not available for many small reservoirs within the Black Hills National Forest. In 2009, the U.S. Forest Service identified the need for reconnaissance-level dam-breach assessments for four of these reservoirs within the Black Hills National Forest (Iron Creek, Horsethief, Lakota, and Mitchell Lakes) with the potential to flood downstream structures. Flood hydrology and dam-breach hydraulic analyses for the four selected reservoirs were conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in coopera-tion with the U.S. Forest service to estimate the areal extent of downstream inundation.
