Located on East Buck Creek in Pontotoc County, this dam is under the jurisdiction of the Oklahoma Water Resources Board. Despite its age, the SCS-Upper Clear Boggy Creek Site-47 remains vital for flood risk reduction in the area, with a controlled spillway and one outlet valve. While it lacks recent condition assessments and emergency preparedness protocols, its very high risk assessment underscores the importance of continued monitoring and maintenance to ensure the safety of surrounding communities and water resources.
