Summary
Built in 1940, it stands at 27 feet tall and has a length of 290 feet, with a storage capacity of 50 acre-feet. The dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections, with a low hazard potential and a risk assessment rating it as very high.
Despite its age, Oknoname 107003 has not been rated for its current condition, and emergency action plans have not been prepared or updated. However, the dam boasts a controlled spillway and a valve outlet gate, ensuring proper water flow management. With a maximum discharge of 990 cubic feet per second, the dam serves a primary purpose classified as "Other", suggesting its role in water resource management beyond flood control.
Located in a region represented by Congressman Markwayne Mullin, the dam's risk assessment highlights the importance of monitoring and maintaining this critical infrastructure. Water resource and climate enthusiasts will find Oknoname 107003 an intriguing subject of study, with its potential impact on the surrounding environment and community.

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.
