Summary
State-regulated and permitted, this sewage disposal pond plays a crucial role in waste management and environmental protection in the area. With a low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating, it stands as a testament to responsible water resource management in the region.
Built in 1960, this Earth-type dam has a hydraulic height of 30 feet and a length of 370 feet, with a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet. The controlled spillway design and valve outlet gate ensure proper water flow control and management. Despite its age, the pond's condition is not rated, highlighting the need for regular inspections and maintenance to uphold its functionality and safety standards for the community.
With Congressman Frank D. Lucas as the representative for the area, the Okeene Sewage Disposal Pond-North serves as a reminder of the importance of sustainable water resource management in mitigating environmental risks and ensuring the well-being of the local population. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the responsible stewardship of facilities like this pond is essential for a resilient and sustainable future.

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.
