Constructed in 1977 by the USDA NRCS, this Earth-type dam stands at 34 feet high and spans a length of 1110 feet, providing a storage capacity of 462 acre-feet. With a controlled spillway and one valve outlet gate, the dam has a low hazard potential and has not been rated for condition assessment.
Despite being last inspected in 1980, this dam remains under state regulation and inspection by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board. Situated on TR-Salt Creek, the structure plays a crucial role in managing floodwaters and protecting downstream areas. With a very high risk assessment rating, it is essential that emergency action plans and risk management measures are put in place to ensure the safety and integrity of the dam in the face of potential hazards. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, this site serves as a significant example of infrastructure designed to mitigate flood risks and safeguard communities in the region.
