Summary
This dam on TR-PECAN CREEK stands at a height of 18 feet and has a hydraulic height of 12 feet, offering a maximum storage capacity of 219 acre-feet. The dam also features a controlled spillway and a valve outlet gate for water release, with a low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating.
Despite being privately owned, Oknoname 101008 is regulated and permitted by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, with regular state inspections and enforcement to ensure safety and compliance. The dam has not been rated for its condition, but it has been assessed for its risk management measures and meets guidelines for emergency action plans. Even though it is not under the jurisdiction of the federal government, the dam plays a crucial role in providing recreational opportunities for the local community and maintaining water resources in the area.
This dam serves as a vital recreational asset for the city of MUSKOGEE, offering a surface area of 15 acres for various water-related activities. With a long history dating back to 1940, Oknoname 101008 continues to be a significant feature in the landscape of Muskogee, Oklahoma, providing both leisure and water resource management benefits for the region.

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.
