Summary
Standing at 24 feet high and 400 feet long, this dam has a NID storage capacity of 200 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 1250 cfs. It features a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate for water flow management.
While the dam's hazard potential is currently labeled as undetermined, its risk assessment is classified as very high. The dam has not undergone a recent condition assessment and is not rated for its current condition. With a history of inspection dating back to 2006 and a state-regulated status, Oknoname 047004 remains a critical structure for flood control in the region. Its location in Grant County, Oklahoma, adds to its importance for water resource management and climate resilience efforts in the area.
Despite limited data on emergency preparedness and risk management measures, Oknoname 047004 serves as a vital infrastructure for mitigating flood risks and protecting downstream communities. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, understanding the significance of structures like this earth dam highlights the ongoing need for monitoring, maintenance, and proactive measures to ensure the safety and effectiveness of water management systems in the face of changing environmental conditions.

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.
