Summary

It has a storage capacity of 70 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 60 acre-feet. The dam is regulated and permitted by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, with inspection and enforcement measures in place to ensure its safety.

Situated on the TR-BOAR CR river/stream in the Tulsa District, the dam has a controlled spillway type with a width of 1 foot. Despite being rated as having a low hazard potential, it is also categorized as having a very high risk level. The structure has one outlet valve and has not been modified since its completion. The last inspection date was in 2011, with a recommended inspection frequency of every 5 years. With its unique characteristics and regulatory oversight, Oknoname 113060 presents an interesting case study for water resource and climate enthusiasts.

Overall, Oknoname 113060 serves as a significant feature in the water infrastructure of Osage, Oklahoma, providing valuable storage and flood control capabilities. Its design and construction details, along with its regulatory framework and risk assessment, offer insights into the management and maintenance of dams in the region. As a privately owned structure, it highlights the diverse ownership and regulatory landscape of water resources in the state, making it a noteworthy site for those interested in the intersection of water management, infrastructure development, and climate resilience.

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.
