Completed in 1969, this dam has a height of 30 feet and a length of 2930 feet, providing a maximum storage capacity of 1722 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 294 acre-feet. The dam is located on Monkey Creek in the city of Red Rock and falls under the jurisdiction of the Oklahoma Water Resources Board.
Despite being rated as having a low hazard potential and not yet receiving a condition assessment, SCS-Upper Red Rock Creek Site-50 is considered to have a very high risk level. With a controlled spillway type and one valve outlet gate, the dam has a spillway width of 2 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 3010 cubic feet per second. While the last inspection took place in November 1999, the dam's condition assessment remains unrated, highlighting the need for continued monitoring and evaluation to ensure its structural integrity and effectiveness in mitigating flood risks in the region.
