Summary

This Earth-type dam stands at 30 feet tall with a hydraulic height of 27 feet and a length of 250 feet. Completed in 1950, it primarily serves as a water supply structure with a storage capacity of 230 acre-feet and a surface area of 10 acres. The dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its safety and functionality.

Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the Risk Assessment for Oknoname 131016 indicates a very high risk level of 1. This suggests that while the dam may not pose an immediate threat, there are significant factors that could potentially lead to a hazardous situation. The dam features a controlled spillway with a width of 2 feet and one outlet valve for water release. Although the condition assessment is listed as "Not Rated," the dam has not been modified in recent years and receives inspections every five years to monitor its integrity.

Overall, Oknoname 131016 plays a crucial role in water supply management in Rogers County, Oklahoma. With its strategic location and design, the dam provides essential storage and regulation capabilities for the surrounding area. While it is important to note the potential risk associated with the structure, ongoing inspections and regulatory oversight help to mitigate any potential issues and ensure the safety of the dam and the community it serves.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
