Standing at a height of 22 feet with a hydraulic height of 18 feet, this dam has a storage capacity of 145 acre-feet and a surface area of 13 acres. It is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and is subject to state inspections and enforcement, ensuring its structural integrity and safety.
The dam, situated on the TR-ISLAND BAYOU river/stream, has a controlled spillway with a width of 1 foot and is equipped with a single valve outlet gate. Despite being classified as having low hazard potential, it has a very high risk assessment due to its condition being not rated, indicating a need for further evaluation and monitoring. The last inspection was conducted in 1999, with an inspection frequency of every 5 years, highlighting the importance of regular assessments to prevent potential risks and ensure public safety.
In the event of an emergency, the dam's Emergency Action Plan (EAP) status is unclear, with no information available on its preparation or last revision date. However, the dam is not owned or funded by any federal agency, suggesting that emergency response and management would likely fall under private ownership. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, monitoring and assessing the condition of Oknoname 013013 is crucial to understanding its impact on the surrounding ecosystem and ensuring its long-term sustainability in the face of changing environmental conditions.
