Summary
Built in 1965, this dam stands at a height of 28 feet and has a storage capacity of 60 acre-feet. The dam's primary purpose is listed as "Other," with a spillway type of 'Controlled' and a hazard potential rated as 'Low.' It is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) and has been inspected for safety, with the last inspection conducted in August 2011.
Despite its low hazard potential, Oknoname 083017 poses a very high risk due to its condition assessment being marked as 'Not Rated.' This risk is further emphasized by the dam's location in a high-risk area, with a maximum discharge of 2100 cubic feet per second. The dam's emergency action plan (EAP) status is currently unclear, with no information provided on its preparedness or adherence to guidelines. Overall, Oknoname 083017 serves as a critical infrastructure in managing water resources in the region, but its risk assessment and condition evaluation are areas that require further attention and monitoring by relevant authorities.

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.
