Summary
This dam, with a height of 18.1 feet and a length of 400 feet, serves the primary purpose of water supply, providing a storage capacity of 85 acre-feet and a normal storage of 27.4 acre-feet. Situated on an unnamed tributary of Cooper Creek, the dam has a low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating, highlighting the importance of proper risk management measures.
Managed by the OWRB in the state of Oklahoma, Oknoname 30167 is regulated, permitted, inspected, and enforced by the state authorities to ensure its safety and compliance with regulations. The dam, constructed with stone core and soil foundation, features a controlled spillway type with a width of 1 foot. Although not currently rated for its condition, the dam undergoes inspections every 5 years to assess its integrity and functionality, emphasizing the importance of regular maintenance and monitoring for water resource and climate enthusiasts interested in sustainable infrastructure management.
With its strategic location in Loyalty, Oklahoma, Oknoname 30167 plays a critical role in water resource management, providing essential supply to the surrounding area. As a key component of the local water infrastructure, this dam serves as a testament to the collaboration between private owners and state agencies in ensuring the sustainability and reliability of water sources in the region. For enthusiasts interested in water resources and climate resilience, Oknoname 30167 presents a fascinating case study of dam engineering, regulation, and risk management in safeguarding water supplies for communities in Oklahoma.

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.
