Summary
Completed in 1970, this dam stands at a height of 80 feet and has a maximum storage capacity of 5000 acre-feet. It serves a primary purpose of "Other" and has a controlled spillway with a width of 1 foot. The dam has a low hazard potential and is currently rated as "Not Rated" in terms of condition assessment.
Despite its low hazard potential, Keeler Ww presents a very high risk level, highlighting the need for effective risk management measures. The dam has not been inspected since September 2011, with a scheduled inspection frequency of every 5 years. Although an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) is not currently in place, the dam meets regulatory guidelines and has not had any inundation maps prepared. The dam's risk assessment score is a very high 1, emphasizing the importance of maintaining and monitoring the structure to prevent any potential hazards.
With a maximum discharge of 7000 cubic feet per second, Keeler Ww poses a significant risk in the event of a breach or failure. It is crucial for the owners and regulatory agencies to prioritize regular inspections, maintenance, and the development of an updated Emergency Action Plan to ensure the safety and integrity of this important water resource in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

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.
