Summary

Built in 1962 for recreation purposes, this dam stands at 40 feet tall and has a storage capacity of 1080 acre-feet. The dam spans 500 feet in length and is primarily constructed with stone core and soil foundation. It is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular state inspections and enforcement measures to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations.

The dam's spillway type is controlled, with a width of 2 feet, and it has one valve outlet gate. Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the risk assessment for Oknoname 113039 is rated as very high (1). While the condition of the dam is currently not rated, it is scheduled for inspection every five years. The surrounding area is at risk of inundation in the event of a failure, highlighting the importance of proper risk management measures and emergency preparedness for this water resource structure.

Overall, Oknoname 113039 serves as a crucial recreational asset in the area, providing water storage and flood control benefits. With its strategic location on TR-BUTLER CR, this dam contributes to the overall water management efforts in Osage County, Oklahoma. Enthusiasts of water resources and climate sustainability will find interest in monitoring the condition and risk assessment of this essential infrastructure to ensure its continued safety and functionality for future generations.

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. 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

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, 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.
