Oknoname 051040 is a privately owned dam located in Tuttle, Oklahoma, on the TR-East Creek.
Built in 1960, this Earth-type dam stands at 20 feet tall and stretches 325 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet. Despite being regulated and inspected by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, the dam is classified as low hazard potential with a very high risk assessment.
With a controlled spillway and one valve outlet gate, Oknoname 051040 poses a low risk of failure but is in need of a condition assessment. Although it has not been rated for its current condition, the dam is still deemed safe for use. The surrounding area covers 4 acres and has a normal storage capacity of 50 acre-feet, serving as a vital water resource in the region.
While Oknoname 051040 may not be a high-risk structure, its location in a very high-risk area raises concerns for potential emergencies. With an outdated last inspection date in 2010, there is a need for increased monitoring and assessment to ensure the dam's continued safety and effectiveness in managing water resources in Grady County, Oklahoma.
