Jr is a privately owned earth dam located in Grady County, Oklahoma, near the city of Cole. Completed in 1960, this dam stands at a height of 30 feet and has a storage capacity of 200 acre-feet. With a controlled spillway and a maximum discharge of 1240 cubic feet per second, Trayler W.J. Jr serves a primary purpose of "Other" and is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB).
Despite being classified as a low hazard potential structure, Trayler W.J. Jr is considered to have a very high risk level, with a risk assessment rating of 1. The dam has not been rated for its condition, but it undergoes inspections every 5 years, with the last one being conducted in August 2010. The dam has a single valve outlet gate and is situated along Bridge Creek, within the Tulsa District of Oklahoma. Although it is not owned or funded by any federal agency, Trayler W.J. Jr is subject to state permitting, inspection, and enforcement.
In case of emergencies, the dam does not have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) prepared, and there are no inundation maps available. With its proximity to residential areas and the high risk associated with it, Trayler W.J. Jr underscores the importance of proactive risk management measures to ensure the safety of the surrounding community and the integrity of the dam structure.
