Summary
Constructed in 1961 by the USDA NRCS, this earth dam stands at a height of 24 feet and spans a length of 1000 feet, serving primarily for flood risk reduction along the TR-DELAWARE CREEK. With a low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating, this dam is under the regulatory oversight of the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) and is subject to state permitting, inspection, and enforcement.
The dam has a maximum storage capacity of 278 acre-feet with a normal storage level of 28 acre-feet, covering a surface area of 9 acres. Equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate, the structure is designed to handle a maximum discharge of 880 cubic feet per second. Despite being last inspected in 1980, the dam is considered to be in "Not Rated" condition assessment status, with an inspection frequency set at 5 years. While there is no Emergency Action Plan (EAP) prepared for this site, the risk management measures are not specified, highlighting the importance of regular monitoring and maintenance to ensure the safety and functionality of this critical infrastructure.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, SCS-Leader-Mid Clr Boggy Cr Site-01 presents an intriguing case study of a relatively small yet vital dam in Oklahoma. The detailed information provided about its design, purpose, and operational status offers valuable insights into the intersection of water management, environmental protection, and public safety. With the potential for future modifications and improvements, this dam serves as a reminder of the ongoing challenges and responsibilities associated with managing water resources in a changing climate landscape.

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.
