Summary
Built in 1946, this dam stands at a height of 20 feet with a length of 420 feet, providing a storage capacity of 60 acre-feet. With a controlled spillway type and a low hazard potential, this structure has a very high risk assessment rating, highlighting the importance of proper monitoring and management.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB), Oknoname 031032 is state-regulated and undergoes regular inspections and enforcement measures. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's very high risk assessment indicates a need for increased vigilance and emergency preparedness. With a single valve outlet gate and no associated structures, this dam plays a crucial role in water resource management in the area.
Located in Comanche County and under the jurisdiction of the Fort Worth District, Oknoname 031032 serves a primary purpose that is classified as "other." With a condition assessment of "not rated" and an inspection frequency of 5 years, this dam presents an intriguing case study for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in the complexities of managing and assessing the risk associated with critical infrastructure in the face of changing environmental conditions.

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.
