Summary
Built in 1965, this earth dam stands at a height of 29 feet, with a hydraulic height of 25 feet and a length of 550 feet. It has a storage capacity of 191 acre-feet, serving the primary purpose of water supply. The dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its structural integrity.
Managed by the local government, Oknoname 137084 boasts a controlled spillway and a low hazard potential rating. Despite not being rated for condition assessment, the dam is considered to have a very high risk, indicating the need for effective risk management measures. With only one valve for outlet gates and no associated locks, the dam is designed to withstand potential emergencies, although specific emergency action plans and inundation maps are yet to be prepared.
As a critical part of the water infrastructure in the area, Oknoname 137084 plays a vital role in providing water supply to the community. Its location along the TR South Fork Deer Creek and under the jurisdiction of the Fort Worth District highlights its significance in water resource management. With a risk assessment indicating a very high level of risk, it is essential for stakeholders to prioritize the implementation of risk management measures to ensure the safety and sustainability of this important water resource infrastructure.

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.
