Oknoname 113011 dam
Oknoname 113011
Oknoname 113011 is a privately owned dam located in Osage, Oklahoma, near the city of Copan. This earth dam stands at a height of 30 feet and has a storage capacity of 180 acre-feet, with a maximum discharge capacity of 900 cubic feet per second. The dam serves a primary purpose of "Other" and is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement in place to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations.
The dam features a controlled spillway with a width of 1 foot and is equipped with one valve for outlet gates. Despite its low hazard potential and "Not Rated" condition assessment, the risk assessment for Oknoname 113011 is classified as "Very High (1)", indicating the need for careful monitoring and risk management measures. The last inspection of the dam was conducted in August 2006, with a scheduled inspection frequency of every 5 years to ensure its continued safety and functionality.
Water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the infrastructure and management of dams will find Oknoname 113011's data to be a valuable insight into the regulatory framework and risk assessment processes involved in maintaining such structures. With its location on the TR-Caney River and its association with the Tulsa District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, this dam serves as a critical piece of water management infrastructure in the region, highlighting the importance of responsible dam operation and maintenance in mitigating potential risks to surrounding communities and the environment.

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 113011
Where does the data for Oknoname 113011 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.
