The dam, standing at a structural height of 52 feet and a hydraulic height of 47 feet, spans a length of 550 feet and has a storage capacity of 299 acre-feet. Situated on TR-Sugar Creek in Caddo County, the dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and is equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the dam at SCS-Sugar Creek Site-002 poses a very high risk of failure, according to a risk assessment rating of 1. However, the condition of the dam has not been officially rated, and it has not undergone inspection since January 1980. While the dam does not currently have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place and lacks updated contact information and inundation maps, it is still subject to state regulatory oversight, inspection, and enforcement to ensure the safety and integrity of the structure for flood risk mitigation in the region.
