Mcgee Lake in Atoka, Oklahoma, is a vital water resource for flood risk reduction in the area. Built in 1978, this earth dam stands at a height of 186 feet and has a storage capacity of 260,000 acre-feet. The dam spans 2,300 feet in length and covers a surface area of 3,810 acres. With a controlled spillway and one outlet gate, Mcgee Lake plays a crucial role in managing water flow and reducing the risk of flooding in the region.

Located on Mcgee Creek, this federal-owned dam is under the jurisdiction of the state of Oklahoma. Despite its low hazard potential, Mcgee Lake is classified as having a very high risk assessment due to its flood risk reduction purpose. The dam has not been rated for its condition assessment, with the last inspection taking place in 1997. While the dam has not been modified in recent years, its risk management measures and emergency action plans are yet to be fully documented. However, Mcgee Lake remains a key infrastructure for water resource management in the area, safeguarding the community from potential flood events.
