Summary
Constructed in 1950, this dam stands at a height of 26 feet and spans 510 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 74 acre-feet. The dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and is subject to state permitting, inspection, and enforcement protocols to ensure its safety and functionality.
Despite being classified with a low hazard potential, the risk assessment for Oknoname 037050 indicates a very high level of risk, with a rating of 1. While the condition assessment remains unrated, the dam is equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate. The last inspection of this structure was conducted in August 2011, with an inspection frequency of every 5 years.
Water resource and climate enthusiasts will find Oknoname 037050 to be an intriguing case study in dam management and risk assessment. With its unique design features, regulatory oversight, and high-risk classification, this dam serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining and monitoring critical infrastructure in the face of changing environmental conditions.

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.
