Summary
This dam is regulated and permitted by the OWRB, ensuring that it meets state inspection and enforcement standards. Completed in 2003, the dam on Criner Creek stands at a height of 30 feet and has a storage capacity of 29.78 acre-feet, serving a vital role in managing water resources in the area.
With a controlled spillway and low hazard potential, Oknoname 30117 is considered to have a very high risk assessment rating. Even though the condition assessment is not rated, the dam has been identified as a critical infrastructure with a surface area of 2.12 acres and a drainage area of 182 square miles. The dam's primary purpose is listed as "Other", and it serves various purposes within the community, highlighting the importance of this water resource structure in the region.
Located in McClain County, Oklahoma, Oknoname 30117 plays a crucial role in water management and flood control along Criner Creek. With a very high risk assessment rating and low hazard potential, this dam is a key piece of infrastructure that ensures the safety and security of the surrounding area. As a private structure, it reflects the collaboration between government agencies and private entities in safeguarding water resources and mitigating climate-related risks 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.
