Standing at a height of 25 feet and stretching 600 feet in length, this dam has a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet and a surface area of 19 acres. It is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections, with a low hazard potential and a risk assessment rating of very high.
Despite its low hazard potential, Xit No.10 has been rated as not yet assessed in terms of its overall condition. The dam features a controlled spillway design with a width of 1 foot and is equipped with a single valve as the outlet gate. While the dam is not under the jurisdiction of any federal agency, it meets state regulatory requirements and has a history of state permitting, inspection, and enforcement. With a risk management plan that is yet to be detailed, Xit No.10 remains an integral part of the local water resource infrastructure along the TR-Cimarron River in Beaver County, Oklahoma.
