The dam stands at 25 feet in height and has a storage capacity of 190 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 100 acre-feet. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam is classified as having a very high risk, indicating the need for careful monitoring and management.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Oknoname 037061 is equipped with a controlled spillway and a valve outlet gate. The dam has not been rated for condition assessment, but it undergoes inspections every five years to ensure its structural integrity and safety. In case of emergency, the dam does not have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) prepared, highlighting the importance of developing a response plan to mitigate potential risks.
Although the dam has not been modified in recent years and has a low hazard potential, its high risk classification warrants attention from water resource and climate enthusiasts. With proper monitoring and management measures in place, Oknoname 037061 can continue to serve its primary purpose effectively while ensuring public safety and environmental protection in the region.
