Summary
This structure, designed by USDA NRCS, serves as a Fish and Wildlife Pond along a minor tributary to Caddo Creek. Completed in 2001, the dam stands at a height of 28 feet with a hydraulic height of 26 feet and a structural height of 32 feet, providing a storage capacity of 139.8 acre-feet.
With a surface area of 10.9 acres and a drainage area of 200 acres, Oknoname 30056 features a controlled spillway and a low hazard potential. Although the condition assessment is currently listed as "Not Rated," the risk assessment for this structure is very high, rated at level 1. Despite the lack of inspection information and an Emergency Action Plan, the risk management measures and inundation maps are not specified, indicating a potential area for improvement in terms of emergency preparedness and safety protocols for this water resource.
Overall, Oknoname 30056 presents an intriguing case study for water resource and climate enthusiasts, showcasing the importance of proper dam management and risk assessment in ensuring the safety and functionality of such structures. With its unique design and purpose as a habitat for fish and wildlife, this dam in Oklahoma serves as a valuable asset for both ecological conservation and water management in the region.

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.
