Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Oknoname 075012 has a controlled spillway and one outlet gate for water release. Despite being rated as low hazard potential, the dam is classified as having a very high risk assessment (1) due to its age and condition not being rated. The last inspection of the dam was conducted in October 2010, with an inspection frequency of every 5 years.
While Oknoname 075012 serves a vital role in water resource management in the area, its risk assessment highlights the importance of regular inspections and maintenance to ensure the safety and integrity of the dam for both the community and the environment it serves.
