This site is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) and is subject to state permitting, inspection, and enforcement. With a dam height of 28 feet and a length of 2000 feet, this stone core structure provides a storage capacity of 372 acre-feet and serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction along the TR-West Rock Creek.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, SCS-Wildhorse Creek Site-100 is considered to have a very high risk due to its location and potential impact in the event of a failure. The structure features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate for water release. The last inspection of the site was conducted in 1980, with an inspection frequency of every 5 years. While the current condition assessment is not rated, the site's risk management measures and emergency action plan (EAP) status remain unknown, highlighting the importance of updated emergency preparedness and risk assessment for this critical water resource infrastructure.
