The dam was completed in 1960 and stands at a height of 25 feet, with a length of 750 feet. Its primary purpose is for recreation, with a normal storage capacity of 60 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 130 acre-feet. The dam overlooks the TR-BERRYHILL CR river or stream and is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB).
Despite its low hazard potential, Oknoname 143006 poses a very high risk due to its location and age. The dam has a controlled spillway and a single outlet valve, with a maximum discharge capacity of 800 cubic feet per second. Although it has not been rated for its condition assessment, the dam undergoes inspections every 5 years, with the last one conducted in December 2010. It is important for water resource and climate enthusiasts to monitor this structure closely to ensure the safety and integrity of the dam and surrounding areas in case of emergencies.
In the event of any potential risks or emergencies, it is crucial for the owners and authorities to have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place, as well as updated contact information and inundation maps. With proper risk management measures, Oknoname 143006 can continue to serve its recreational purpose while ensuring the safety of the community and the environment.
