Summary
Completed in 1983, this earthen dam stands at a height of 30 feet and spans a length of 1040 feet, providing a storage capacity of 256 acre-feet. The dam is equipped with a controlled spillway and a single valve outlet gate for water management.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, the SCS-Upper Muddy Boggy Creek Site-11 is considered to have a low hazard potential with a very high risk assessment rating. While the dam's condition is not currently rated, inspections are carried out every five years to ensure its structural integrity. Despite its age, the dam continues to serve its purpose effectively in mitigating flood risks in the area and protecting downstream communities from potential water-related disasters.
Situated within the Tulsa District, the SCS-Upper Muddy Boggy Creek Site-11 plays a crucial role in managing water flow along the TR-Muddy Boggy Creek. With its strategic location and design, this dam serves as a vital infrastructure for water resource management and climate resilience efforts in the region, highlighting the importance of sustainable water management practices for the community and the environment.

Dam Data Reference
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.
