Summary

Completed in 1962, this dam stands at a height of 27 feet with a hydraulic height of 24 feet and a length of 3910 feet. It has a normal storage capacity of 22 acre-feet and a maximum storage capacity of 265 acre-feet, serving as a crucial infrastructure for the local community.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the risk assessment for SCS-Leader-Mid Clr Boggy Cr Site-25 indicates a very high risk level. However, the dam’s condition assessment is listed as not rated, suggesting a need for further evaluation to ensure its structural integrity and reliability in the face of potential emergencies. With the Oklahoma Water Resources Board overseeing state regulation, inspection, and enforcement, this dam plays a vital role in water resource management and climate resilience efforts within the region.

As a key component in the flood risk reduction strategy, SCS-Leader-Mid Clr Boggy Cr Site-25 is equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate. While the last inspection date dates back to 1980, the inspection frequency is set at 5 years, highlighting the importance of regular maintenance and monitoring to mitigate any potential risks. With a designated emergency action plan (EAP) status unknown, there is a need for updated emergency protocols and risk management measures to enhance the safety and preparedness of this critical water infrastructure facility.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
