Summary

The dam, completed in 1960, stands at a height of 35 feet and has a length of 370 feet, serving primarily for recreational purposes. Situated on the TR-ROCK CREEK river or stream, the dam has a maximum storage capacity of 100 acre-feet and a normal storage capacity of 50 acre-feet, with a surface area of 1 acre.

Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB), Oknoname 037080 is inspected and regulated by the state, with low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating. The dam features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate. Although the condition assessment is not rated, the dam has not been modified in recent years and has a relatively low risk of failure. Despite being non-Federal, Oknoname 037080 meets state permitting, inspection, and enforcement requirements.

Water resource and climate enthusiasts will find Oknoname 037080 an interesting structure to study, given its unique design and purpose for recreation. The dam, nestled in the picturesque landscape of Creek, Oklahoma, serves as a vital component of the local ecosystem and water management infrastructure. With its historical significance dating back to 1960, Oknoname 037080 stands as a testament to human ingenuity in harnessing and managing water resources for the benefit of communities.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No 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

High
Dams 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.
