Completed in 1960, the dam stands at a height of 22 feet and has a storage capacity of 155 acre-feet, primarily serving the purpose of flood risk reduction along the TR-Council Creek. The dam has a controlled spillway, one outlet gate, and is classified as low hazard potential with a very high risk assessment rating.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Oknoname 119010 has state-regulated permitting, inspection, and enforcement processes in place to ensure its structural integrity and public safety. The dam underwent its last inspection in December 2003, with an inspection frequency of every 5 years. Despite not being condition-rated, the dam's risk management measures are yet to be specified, highlighting the need for further assessment to mitigate potential risks associated with its operations.
Located within the Tulsa District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Oknoname 119010 serves as a key infrastructure for flood control in the region, with a history of modifications and updates to meet evolving safety standards. As a vital component of water resource management in Oklahoma, the dam's significance lies in its ability to protect downstream communities from potential flooding events while maintaining a balance between environmental conservation and public safety.
