is a privately owned dam located in Harper County, Oklahoma, specifically in the city of Willard. Completed in 1965, this earth dam stands at a height of 21 feet and has a maximum storage capacity of 90 acre-feet. It serves a primary purpose of "Other" and is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB).
The dam, situated on the TR-Redoubt Creek, has a controlled spillway and is equipped with one valve outlet gate. Despite its low hazard potential, it is categorized as having a very high risk due to its condition assessment being "Not Rated" and the lack of updated emergency action plans and inundation maps. The dam falls under the jurisdiction of the Tulsa District of the US Army Corps of Engineers but is not owned or funded by any federal agency.
This structure, with its stone core and soil foundation, plays a crucial role in water resource management in the area. Climate and water resource enthusiasts would find Thomas Eddie E. to be an interesting case study in dam infrastructure and risk management, highlighting the importance of regular inspections, maintenance, and emergency preparedness in safeguarding our water resources in the face of changing environmental conditions.
