Summary

Completed in 1960, this structure stands at 18 feet high and spans 348 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 58 acre-feet. Situated on the TR-Wolf Creek, this dam serves a primary purpose classified as 'Other' and is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB). Despite its low hazard potential, the risk assessment for Oknoname 125011 is marked as 'Very High (1)', highlighting the need for effective risk management measures to ensure the safety and integrity of the dam.

Although it has not been rated for condition assessment, Oknoname 125011 undergoes inspections every five years, with the last inspection conducted in May 2011. The dam features a controlled spillway with a width of 1 foot and is equipped with a single valve outlet gate. The surrounding area covers a surface of 2 acres, with a maximum discharge capacity of 800 cubic feet per second. While the dam has not been modified in recent years, its location in Trousdale, Oklahoma underscores the importance of continued monitoring and maintenance to mitigate potential risks associated with its operation.

Given the critical role of water resources in the face of climate change, the detailed data on Oknoname 125011 provides valuable insights for water resource and climate enthusiasts. The dam's association with the Tulsa District of the US Army Corps of Engineers and its compliance with state regulatory agencies demonstrate the collaborative efforts in managing water infrastructure for the community's benefit. As efforts to address climate-related challenges intensify, understanding and monitoring structures like Oknoname 125011 are essential for ensuring water security and resilience in the face of a changing climate.

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.
