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.
