Summary
Completed in 1965, this structure stands at a height of 33 feet and spans a length of 777 feet along TR-Boggy Creek. With a maximum storage capacity of 220 acre-feet, this dam plays a crucial role in mitigating potential flood risks in the region. Despite its low hazard potential, the risk assessment for this site indicates a very high risk level, emphasizing the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure its integrity.
The SCS-Boggy Creek Site-32 boasts a controlled spillway with a width of 1 foot and features a valve outlet gate for water release. Even though the dam's condition assessment is currently marked as "not rated," regular inspections have been scheduled every 5 years to assess its structural integrity and functionality. The proximity of this dam to Cloud Chief, Oklahoma, underlines its significance in safeguarding the local community from flooding events. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the role of such infrastructure in water management and resilience building becomes increasingly vital.
With the Tulsa District overseeing this dam, the SCS-Boggy Creek Site-32 serves as a critical piece of infrastructure in the region's water resource management efforts. As discussions around climate adaptation and sustainable water practices gain momentum, understanding the role and importance of structures like this earth dam becomes essential. By recognizing the interconnectedness of water resources and climate resilience, stakeholders can work towards ensuring the long-term sustainability and effectiveness of such vital infrastructure.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
