Scs-Wdw Ranch 1 Reservoir Report

Last Updated: February 12, 2026

SCS-Wdw Ranch 1, located in Blair, Oklahoma, is a privately owned Fish and Wildlife Pond designed by the USDA NRCS.


Summary

This dam, completed in 1995, stands at 27 feet high and spans 566 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet. Situated on the North Fork of Red River, this structure serves as a vital resource for the local ecosystem, with a drainage area of 960 acres and a maximum discharge of 705 cubic feet per second.

Despite its low hazard potential, SCS-Wdw Ranch 1 is subject to state regulation and inspection by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board. The dam's primary purpose is to support fish and wildlife habitats, with a focus on conservation and environmental sustainability. While its condition assessment is currently not rated, the risk assessment for this dam indicates a very high level of risk, highlighting the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance efforts to ensure its continued safety and functionality for the community and surrounding area.

Dam Data Reference

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.
