Summary
Built in 1965, this dam stands at a height of 24 feet and has a length of 3260 feet. With a storage capacity of 64 acre-feet, it serves a primary purpose that is classified as "Other" with a spillway type of "Controlled".
Despite being rated as having a low hazard potential, Oknoname 063039 is considered to have a very high risk assessment level due to its location and structural features. The dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) and is subject to state inspections, permitting, and enforcement. The last inspection was conducted in August 2011, with a frequency of every 5 years.
Although the dam's condition is currently not rated and there are no emergency action plans prepared, the presence of a valve outlet gate suggests some level of operational control. With the risk assessment indicating a high level of risk, it is essential for the owners and regulatory agencies to ensure proper monitoring and maintenance to mitigate any potential hazards associated with Oknoname 063039.

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.
