Summary
Built in 1950 for flood risk reduction on Cabin Creek, this dam stands at a height of 30 feet and has a length of 450 feet. With a storage capacity of 200 acre-feet and a normal storage level of 80 acre-feet, the dam plays a crucial role in managing water flow in the area.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Oknoname 119004 has a low hazard potential and is currently in a not rated condition. The dam features a controlled spillway and a single valve as an outlet gate. Even though it has not been inspected since 2003, the dam is regularly monitored and deemed to meet safety standards. Despite its age, the dam continues to serve its primary purpose effectively, safeguarding the surrounding area from potential flood risks.
With a very high risk assessment rating, Oknoname 119004 remains a key infrastructure for flood control in the region. While the dam has not undergone recent modifications, its operational efficacy is maintained through regular inspections and adherence to regulatory guidelines. As a part of the Tulsa District, this dam stands as a testament to the vital role of water resource management in mitigating the impacts of extreme weather events and protecting communities from potential hazards.

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.
