Managed by the USDA NRCS, this site serves as a crucial flood risk reduction infrastructure along Deep Red Creek. Completed in 1974, the earth dam stands at a height of 65 feet and has a hydraulic height of 59 feet, providing a storage capacity of 34,105 acre-feet and covering a surface area of 2009 acres.
The dam's primary purpose is flood risk reduction, with a controlled spillway width of 4 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 2100 cubic feet per second. Despite being classified as having a significant hazard potential, the dam is assessed to be in fair condition as of August 2011. Although the last inspection was conducted in December 2010, with an inspection frequency of 3 years, the risk assessment remains very high (1). The site's location, design, and operational features make it a vital asset for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in flood risk management and infrastructure resilience in Oklahoma.
