Summary
Completed in 1950, this dam stands at 28 feet high with a storage capacity of 210 acre-feet. It serves as a vital structure for controlling the flow of the TR-LUCY CR river/stream, with a maximum discharge of 310 cubic feet per second.
Managed by the OWRB (Oklahoma Water Resources Board), this dam is regularly inspected and maintained to ensure its structural integrity and safety. Despite being rated as having a low hazard potential, the risk assessment for Oknoname 113156 indicates a very high risk level, possibly due to its age and the surrounding environmental factors. The dam's spillway is of the controlled type, with a width of 1 foot, and features a valve outlet gate for water release.
Overall, Oknoname 113156 plays a crucial role in water resource management in the region, highlighting the importance of proper infrastructure maintenance and risk assessment in the face of changing climate patterns. As climate enthusiasts, understanding and monitoring the condition of such dams is essential for ensuring the safety and sustainability of water resources in the face of potential challenges and emergencies.

Dam Data Reference
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.
