Completed in 1955, this earth dam stands at 31 feet high with a hydraulic height of 26 feet and a length of 1280 feet, providing a storage capacity of 292 acre-feet. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam has a very high risk assessment rating of 1, indicating the need for vigilant monitoring and management.
Owned by the state and under the jurisdiction of the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB), SCS-Chigley Sandy Creek Site-02 features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate. While the dam's condition is currently not rated, it is subject to regular inspections every five years, with the last recorded inspection dating back to 1980. With a risk management plan yet to be developed, the dam poses a potential risk to the surrounding area in the event of a breach, highlighting the importance of ongoing assessment and maintenance to ensure public safety and water resource protection.
