Oknoname 113009 dam
Oknoname 113009
Oknoname 113009, located in Osage County, Oklahoma, is a privately owned dam with a primary purpose of fire protection and stock or small fish pond. Built in 1965, this stone dam stands at a height of 30 feet and has a storage capacity of 140 acre-feet. The dam, which spans 200 feet in length, is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections, with a low hazard potential rating.
Situated along the TR-Carney River, Oknoname 113009 serves as a crucial water resource for the surrounding area, with a maximum discharge capacity of 700 cubic feet per second. The dam features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate. Despite its age, the dam remains in good condition and has a very high risk assessment rating, signifying its importance for flood control and water management in the region. With its strategic location and regulatory oversight, Oknoname 113009 plays a vital role in ensuring water security and emergency preparedness for the community.
In the event of any potential risks or emergencies, the dam is equipped with an emergency action plan (EAP) and updated contact information. With its low hazard potential and adherence to regulatory standards, Oknoname 113009 exemplifies responsible water resource management and underscores the importance of maintaining infrastructure for climate resilience. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, this dam serves as a case study in sustainable water management practices and the critical role of regulatory agencies in ensuring the safety and efficiency of water infrastructure.

Condition Assessment
- Satisfactory
- No 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.
- 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.
- 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.
Hazard Potential Classification
- High
- Dams 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, environmental 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.

About Oknoname 113009
Where does the data for Oknoname 113009 come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Low hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
