Oknoname 113096 dam
Oknoname 113096
Oknoname 113096 is a private dam located in Osage, Oklahoma, specifically in the city of Bartlesville. Completed in 1950, this Earth-type dam stands at a height of 50 feet with a hydraulic height of 40 feet and a structural height of 50 feet. It serves a primary purpose of "Other" and has a storage capacity of 1500 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 150 acre-feet. The dam, situated on Ranch Creek, has a spillway type of "Controlled" with a width of 1 foot.
Despite being categorized as having a "Low" hazard potential, Oknoname 113096 is associated with a very high risk assessment rating of 1. It has not been rated for its condition assessment, but its last inspection was conducted in September 2011 with a frequency of once every 5 years. The dam has one valve outlet gate and covers a surface area of 25 acres. The risk management measures and other related factors for this dam are currently unspecified.
Overall, Oknoname 113096 is a significant structure in the water resource management of Osage, Oklahoma, with a rich history dating back to the mid-20th century. Its presence on Ranch Creek contributes to the local ecosystem and water supply, while also posing a high risk that necessitates careful monitoring and management. Water resource and climate enthusiasts would find this dam to be an intriguing subject of study and discussion within the realm of water infrastructure and environmental sustainability.
Dam data reference
Condition Assessment
- Satisfactory
- No 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.
- 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.
- 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.
Hazard Potential Classification
- High
- Dams 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, environmental 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.

About Oknoname 113096
Where does the data for Oknoname 113096 come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Low hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
