Designed by USDA NRCS and completed in 1961, this dam serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction for the surrounding Coal County area. Standing at a height of 26 feet and a length of 950 feet, it has a storage capacity of 334 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 29 acre-feet.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB), this dam is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by the state agency to ensure its proper functioning and safety. Despite being rated as low hazard potential, the risk assessment for this dam indicates a very high risk level (1), emphasizing the importance of regular inspections and maintenance. With a controlled spillway and one outlet valve, this dam is equipped to handle a maximum discharge of 895 cubic feet per second.
Although the condition assessment is currently not rated, the dam has not undergone any modifications since its completion. With a solid stone core and soil foundation, this structure remains a crucial asset for managing flood risks in the region. The presence of emergency action plans and inundation maps is yet to be confirmed, highlighting the need for further risk management measures to ensure the safety and well-being of the local community.
