Oknoname 30159 is a privately owned Earth dam located in Kay County, Oklahoma.
Built in 1997 by USDA NRCS, this dam stands at a height of 23 feet and has a storage capacity of 77 acre-feet. Although its primary purpose is listed as "Other," the dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections, with the last one conducted in May 2011.
With a controlled spillway and a low hazard potential, Oknoname 30159 poses a very high risk due to its location and design. Despite being in good condition and not rated for assessment, the dam is associated with a single valve outlet gate. The surrounding area has a drainage basin of 434 square miles, emphasizing the importance of proper maintenance and risk management measures to ensure public safety and water resource sustainability in the event of an emergency. The dam's risk assessment and management protocols will be crucial in mitigating potential risks and ensuring the long-term safety and efficacy of this essential water resource infrastructure.
