Scs-Boggy Creek Site-12 Reservoir Report
Last Updated: December 6, 2025
SCS-Boggy Creek Site-12, located in Cloud Chief, Oklahoma, is a state-regulated earth dam constructed in 1965 by the USDA NRCS for the primary purpose of flood risk reduction along the TR-South Boggy Creek.

Summary
The dam stands at a height of 39 feet with a hydraulic height of 35 feet and a length of 1450 feet, providing a maximum storage capacity of 298 acre-feet. With a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate, the dam has a low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating.
Although the dam's condition assessment is currently listed as "not rated," the state regulatory agency OWRB ensures that inspections, permitting, and enforcement are conducted regularly to maintain its structural integrity. The risk management measures and emergency action plan (EAP) status for the site are not specified in the available data, but the dam's history of effective flood risk reduction highlights its importance in protecting the surrounding Washita County community from potential inundation events. Water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the management and maintenance of critical infrastructure like SCS-Boggy Creek Site-12 will find this site's details intriguing for further study and analysis.

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.
