This dam stands at a height of 28 feet and has a length of 750 feet, providing a NID storage capacity of 188 acre-feet. With a low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating, this dam is equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, SCS-Finn Creek Site-012 has not undergone a condition assessment and is currently rated as "Not Rated". Despite its low hazard potential, the dam presents a very high risk due to its age and lack of updated emergency action plans. With a maximum discharge capacity of 505 cubic feet per second, this dam serves as a critical infrastructure for flood control in McClain County, Oklahoma. Further inspection and risk management measures are recommended to ensure the safety and effectiveness of this important water resource structure.
