Summary
Constructed in 1940, this earth dam stands at 28 feet tall and spans 215 feet in length, with a primary purpose of serving as a recreational area. Situated on CATFISH CREEK, this dam offers a surface area of 2 acres and a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet, with a maximum discharge of 500 cubic feet per second.
Managed by the OWRB in Oklahoma, the dam has a controlled spillway and a low hazard potential, with very high risk assessment rating. Despite being in a very high-risk area, the condition assessment of the dam is currently not rated, with the last inspection conducted in 2011. With one valve outlet gate and no associated structures, Oknoname 037019 is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by the state, ensuring its safety and compliance with regulatory standards.
This dam, located in the Tulsa District and owned by a private entity, offers recreational opportunities while also serving as a critical water resource in the region. As climate change continues to impact water resources, the management and maintenance of dams like Oknoname 037019 are vital to ensuring the safety and sustainability of water infrastructure in Oklahoma.

Dam Data Reference
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.
