Summary
The earth dam, with a height of 22 feet and a length of 820 feet, was completed in 1966 and has a storage capacity of 74 acre-feet. The dam serves the primary purpose of irrigation and is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board.
Despite being classified as having a low hazard potential, the dam at Hldm Farms INC is considered to have a very high risk due to its condition not being rated and the last inspection taking place in 2004. The spillway type is controlled with a width of 1 foot, and there is one valve for outlet gates. The dam is in need of regular inspections, as the inspection frequency is every 5 years, and emergency preparedness measures such as an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) are not reported.
With a risk assessment of Very High (1), it is crucial for Hldm Farms INC to prioritize the maintenance and safety of their dam to ensure the protection of their agricultural operations and the surrounding area. Regular inspections, updating emergency preparedness measures, and implementing risk management measures are essential for mitigating potential hazards and ensuring the longevity and functionality of the dam.

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.
