Completed in 1940, the earth-type structure stands at a height of 40 feet and spans 1000 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 1500 acre-feet. The dam serves various purposes, with a primary function classified as 'Other', and features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate.
Despite being rated as having a low hazard potential, Oknoname 111072 is considered to have a very high risk due to its condition not being assessed and the absence of emergency action plans and inundation maps. The last inspection was conducted in 2011, with an inspection frequency of 5 years. While the dam is not under the jurisdiction of federal agencies, it plays a crucial role in managing water resources in the area and highlights the importance of regular maintenance and risk management measures to ensure the safety and sustainability of the structure for the community and environment.
