"privateDamId":null, "projectDescription":"The Jemez Canyon Dam project is owned and operated by the Albuquerque District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The project includes a dam located on the Jemez River, 2.8 miles upstream from its confluence with the Rio Grande, about five river miles upstream of Santa Ana Pueblo, and approximately 40 miles upstream of Albuquerque. Construction was completed in 1953 and primary project features include a zoned earthen embankment dam; gated outlet works to adjust operational water releases into the Jemez River; and earth-cut spillway to pass much larger, uncontrolled releases during extreme events. The project also includes Santa Ana Pueblo Protection Works, a smaller earthen embankment located upstream of the dam to reduce flood risk at the historic older Pueblo during periods of high lake levels. The pool was released in 2001 and since then, river flows pass through open gates of the outlet works. During flood events, the Jemez Canyon Dam project can be operated on its own or in conjunction with other dams to optimize upstream and downstream flood risk reduction in the Rio Grande Basin. In addition to the project\u2019s main purpose of flood risk reduction, it is also authorized for sediment detention.", "riskCharSummary":"Although the Jemez Canyon Dam project has successfully reduced flooding, it does not eliminate all flood risk caused by rain downstream of the dam or due to emergency operation of the project. During infrequent emergency operation, larger required releases through the project\u2019s gated outlet works could surpass downstream river channel capacity and flood low-lying areas along the Rio Grande to Elephant Butte Lake. Although the progression of events leading to much larger, uncontrolled spillway flow have never occurred, flow through the spillway could greatly surpass downstream channel capacity, flood low-lying areas along the Jemez River and Rio Grande, and be life-threatening. Flood inundation caused by uncontrolled spillway flow could cause catastrophic downstream damages to residences and infrastructure (including levees) along the Rio Grande to Elephant Butte Lake. Impacted communities include the Pueblo of Santa Ana, Pueblo of Sandia Village, low lying areas in Corrales and Albuquerque, Isleta Pueblo, Los Lunas, Socorro, and communities located in between.\n\nUSACE conducted a risk assessment of the Jemez Canyon Dam project in 2015. Results characterize dam breach risk as LOW due to the combination of life loss consequences and low likelihood of dam breach occurring either during normal operations or as the result of an extreme event. Specifically, the occurrence spillway erosion leading to dam breach as the consequence of an infrequent storm event (0.001% chance per year) was identified. The annual probability of dam breach due to spillway erosion is estimated to be moderate (1 in 10,000). However, if a dam breach were to occur, flood inundation would be life-threatening and cause catastrophic downstream damages to residences and infrastructure (including levees) along the Rio Grande to Elephant Butte Lake. Impacted communities include the Pueblo of Santa Ana, Pueblo of Sandia Village, low lying areas in Corrales and Albuquerque, Isleta Pueblo, Los Lunas, Socorro, and communities located in between.", "riskManagementMeasures":"USACE strives to manage risk through application of several measures including inspections and instrument evaluations, assessments and studies, maintenance activities, and risk communication. Routine inspections and instrument evaluation are performed to monitor performance of the project. Special inspections or increased inspection frequency occurs during high pools, spillway flows, or in response to earthquakes or signs of distress. Comprehensive inspections occur annually, with more detailed inspections taking place every 5 years. Assessments occur every 10 years to compare original design and construction methods to modern standards. Maintenance is routinely performed at the project and recent activities included addition of a rock fall arrest system to protect project infrastructure from damages and ensures access to critical project features; clearing debris from the outlet works to allow unobstructed flow through the conduit during both routine and high flow events; and grading to mitigate the occurrence of erosion on the downstream slope of the earthen embankment. Planned activities include replacement of the gate hoist cables and erosion repairs on the downstream earthen embankment slope. In addition, recent significant upgrades were made to the collection and pump system at the Santa Ana Protection Works. Future risk communication activities include revisions to the Emergency Action Plan (EAP) and development of a formal risk communication plan. Flood warnings to notify affected communities downstream of the project are coordinated with external entities.", "riverName":"JEMEZ RIVER", "separateStructuresCount":1, "sourceAgency":"US Army Corps of Engineers", "spillwayTypeId":3, "spillwayWidth":428, "stateFedId":"NM00003", "stateRegulatoryAgency":null, "stateRegulatedId":0, "structuralHeight":150, "submitDate":"2023-02-16T17:25:25.685Z", "surfaceArea":1396, "volume":0, "widthOfLocks":0, "secondaryWidthOfLocks":null, "yearCompleted":1953, "congDist":"Congressional District 03, New Mexico", "city":"BERNALILLO", "county":"Sandoval", "aiannh":"Santa Ana Pueblo", "websiteUrl":"https://www.spa.usace.army.mil/Missions/Civil-Works/Recreation/Jemez-Canyon-Dam/", "coreTypeIds":"3", "damTypeIds":"8", "fedConstructionIds":"1", "fedDesignIds":"1", "fedFundingIds":"1", "fedInspectionIds":"1", "fedOperationIds":"1", "fedOtherIds":"1", "fedOwnerIds":"1", "fedRegulatoryIds":"1", "formerNames":null, "foundationTypeIds":"3", "nonFederalDamOnFederalId":0, "designerNames":"CESPA", "otherNames":"Jemez Canyon Reservoir", "ownerNames":"USACE - Albuquerque District", "ownerTypeIds":"3", "primaryDamTypeId":8, "primaryOwnerTypeId":3, "primaryPurposeId":9, "purposeIds":"9;12", "dsacId":4, "femaRegion":"6", "lastEapExcerDate":"2024-08-13T12:00:00.000Z", "dataUpdated":"2025-06-10T12:00:00.000Z", "usaceDistrict":"Albuquerque District", "noConsequencesId":0, "secretaryAgricultureBuiltId":null, "nrcsWatershedAuthorizationId":null, "isAssociatedStructureId":"No", "fedRegulatedId":"Yes", "inundationNidAddedId":1, "damStatusId":2, "huc06":"130202", "doi_region":"UCB", "doi_region_name":"Upper Colorado Basin", "doi_region_number":7 }, "id":367043, "links":[ { "type":"application/json", "rel":"root", "title":"The landing page of this server as JSON", "href":"https://api.wwdh.internetofwater.app?f=json" }, { "type":"text/html", "rel":"root", "title":"The landing page of this server as HTML", "href":"https://api.wwdh.internetofwater.app?f=html" }, { "rel":"self", "type":"application/geo+json", "title":"This document as JSON", "href":"https://api.wwdh.internetofwater.app/collections/usace-edr/items/367043?f=json" }, { "rel":"alternate", "type":"application/ld+json", "title":"This document as RDF (JSON-LD)", "href":"https://api.wwdh.internetofwater.app/collections/usace-edr/items/367043?f=jsonld" }, { "rel":"alternate", "type":"text/html", "title":"This document as HTML", "href":"https://api.wwdh.internetofwater.app/collections/usace-edr/items/367043?f=html" }, { "rel":"collection", "type":"application/json", "title":"USACE Access2Water API", "href":"https://api.wwdh.internetofwater.app/collections/usace-edr" } ] }
