Summary
Land & Cattle Co. is a privately owned dam located in Osage, Oklahoma, specifically in the city of Personia. Built in 1940, the Earth-type dam stands at a height of 25 feet and has a hydraulic height of 20 feet, serving the primary purpose of "Other." With a storage capacity of 180 acre-feet, the dam's spillway type is controlled, with a width of 1 foot.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Okla. Land & Cattle Co. has a low hazard potential and is categorized as being in "Very High" risk due to its high-risk assessment rating of 1. Despite not being currently rated for condition assessment, the dam has undergone inspections every 5 years, with the last inspection taking place in June 2003. With a maximum discharge capacity of 1800 cubic feet per second, the dam plays a crucial role in regulating TR-Sand Creek in the Tulsa District.
Overall, Okla. Land & Cattle Co. serves as a vital infrastructure for water resource management in the region, showcasing the importance of private ownership in ensuring the safety and sustainability of water resources. As climate change continues to impact water availability and quality, dams like this play a critical role in mitigating risks and supporting the resilience of local communities and ecosystems.

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.
