Summary
Standing at 22 feet in height and stretching 585 feet in length, this earth dam provides a storage capacity of 1155 acre-feet and covers a surface area of 44 acres. Situated on an unnamed pond in Okaloosa County, Oc2 is regulated and permitted by the state of Florida, with inspections and enforcement carried out regularly to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations.
Despite its undetermined hazard potential and lack of a condition assessment rating, Oc2 remains an important recreational structure in the area. While no significant modifications or improvements have been recorded, the dam continues to provide valuable storage and water management functions. With an emergency action plan status yet to be determined and limited risk assessment information available, further evaluation and management measures may be necessary to address potential safety concerns and ensure the long-term sustainability of this water resource.
As water resource and climate enthusiasts, understanding the role of structures like Oc2 in managing water resources and providing recreational opportunities is crucial. By staying informed about the condition and regulatory oversight of dams like Oc2, enthusiasts can contribute to the preservation and sustainable use of these valuable assets. Continued monitoring, assessment, and risk management efforts will be essential in safeguarding the integrity and functionality of Oc2 for future generations to enjoy.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
