Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, Oknoname 137091 is considered to have a very high risk due to its condition assessment being labeled as "Not Rated." The dam features a single valve outlet gate and has a history of regular inspections, with the last one conducted in August 2011. While the risk level is high, there are currently no emergency action plans (EAP) in place, raising concerns about the preparedness and response measures in case of a potential breach or failure.
With a risk management summary indicating a very high risk level and a lack of updated emergency response protocols, Oknoname 137091 poses a potential threat to the surrounding area in the event of a disaster. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, it is paramount to monitor and address the safety and maintenance of such critical infrastructure to ensure the protection of lives and properties downstream.
