Completed in 1970, this dam stands at a height of 40 feet and has a storage capacity of 70 acre-feet. The dam is situated on TR-BUTLER CR, within the Tulsa District of Oklahoma, and is regulated by the OWRB. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam is categorized as having a very high risk due to its condition not being rated and lacking important emergency preparedness measures such as an EAP.
The structure features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate. It covers a surface area of 2 acres and has a normal storage capacity of 50 acre-feet. The dam has not undergone any modifications since its completion and is subject to inspection every 5 years. The most recent inspection was conducted in September 2011, highlighting the need for updated emergency procedures and risk management measures to mitigate potential hazards associated with the dam.
While Oknoname 113040 serves as a recreational site in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, water resource and climate enthusiasts should be aware of the dam's high-risk classification and the lack of crucial emergency preparedness protocols. With its location in a highly regulated state jurisdiction and the involvement of the OWRB, there is a need for improved risk assessment, emergency action planning, and overall condition assessment to ensure the safety of the surrounding community and environment.
