The dam stands at a height of 28 feet and has a length of 655 feet, providing a storage capacity of 190 acre-feet and a maximum discharge capability of 2700 cubic feet per second. Equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate, the dam poses a low hazard potential according to the data.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB), Barby Sargent No 3 is subject to state regulations including permitting, inspection, and enforcement procedures. Despite being in operation for over six decades, the dam's condition assessment remains unrated as of the last inspection conducted in January 2005. With a very high risk classification due to its location on Cottonwood Creek and the surrounding area, the dam presents a critical need for risk management measures to address potential emergencies and safeguard the community and environment from adverse impacts.
