Summary
Built in 1965 by the USDA NRCS, this earth dam stands at a height of 32 feet and has a maximum storage capacity of 450 acre-feet. With a normal storage of 155 acre-feet and a surface area of 23 acres, this dam plays a crucial role in mitigating flood risks in the area.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, SCS-Boggy Creek Site-04 features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate. Despite being assessed as having a low hazard potential, the dam is considered to have a very high risk due to its age and the lack of recent condition assessments. With a history of only one inspection in 1980, this site may benefit from more frequent monitoring and maintenance to ensure its continued effectiveness in flood risk reduction for the community.
While the dam's emergency action plan status and risk management measures are currently unknown, its location in Washita County under the jurisdiction of the Tulsa District of the US Army Corps of Engineers highlights its importance in water resource management and climate resilience efforts in the region. Enthusiasts interested in sustainable water infrastructure and climate adaptation may find SCS-Boggy Creek Site-04 to be a fascinating case study in the intersection of engineering, regulation, and environmental stewardship.

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.
