Summary
Built in 1970, this recreational dam stands at 30 feet tall with a length of 435 feet and a storage capacity of 200 acre-feet. It is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections and enforcement measures to ensure its safety and compliance with state regulations.
Situated on TR-NUYAKA CREEK and managed by the Tulsa District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Oknoname 107009 serves primarily for recreational purposes. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam is classified as having a very high risk due to its condition assessment not being rated. The dam has a controlled spillway and a single outlet valve, and while it has not been modified in recent years, it is subject to a five-year inspection frequency to monitor its structural integrity and safety.
Even though the dam poses a low hazard potential, its very high risk classification emphasizes the importance of regular maintenance and risk management measures. With a focus on recreation and a commitment to meeting state regulatory standards, Oknoname 107009 remains a key asset in the water resource infrastructure of 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.
