Oknoname 113064 dam
Oknoname 113064
Oknoname 113064 is a privately owned dam located in Avant, Oklahoma, with a fascinating history dating back to its completion in 1950. This Earth-type dam stands at 40 feet tall and spans 200 feet in length, serving primarily for purposes classified as "Other." With a capacity of 190 acre-feet and a controlled spillway design, the dam boasts a low hazard potential despite being classified as having a very high risk assessment.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Oknoname 113064 is subject to state regulation, permitting, inspection, and enforcement. The dam's condition assessment is currently listed as "Not Rated," with the last inspection conducted in August 2006. With a valve outlet gate and a surface area of 2 acres, this structure plays a crucial role in managing the flow of the TR-Bull Creek stream within the Osage County region of Oklahoma.
Despite its unassuming profile, Oknoname 113064 represents a vital piece of infrastructure in the state's water resource management network. With its strategic location and design features, this dam continues to play a crucial role in mitigating flood risks and ensuring water availability for the surrounding communities. As climate change impacts water resources, understanding and safeguarding structures like Oknoname 113064 are essential for sustainable water management in the region.
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 113064
Where does the data for Oknoname 113064 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.
