Summary
Built in 1968, this Earth-type dam stands at 18 feet high and spans 410 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 57 acre-feet. The dam, regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, serves a primary purpose of "Other" and has a controlled spillway with a width of 1 foot.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the risk assessment for Oknoname 123004 indicates a very high risk level, warranting further attention and management measures. The dam has not been rated for its condition, with the last inspection conducted in May 2010. Emergency action plans and inundation maps are not reported to be prepared or updated, raising concerns about the readiness for any potential emergencies.
With a risk level of very high, Oknoname 123004 presents a significant concern for the surrounding area in Pontotoc County, Oklahoma. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, it is crucial to monitor and address the potential risks associated with this dam to ensure the safety and security of the community and environment. The data provided highlights the importance of ongoing inspections, maintenance, and emergency preparedness measures to mitigate the risks posed by this dam.

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.
