Summary
The dam stands at a height of 16.3 feet with a hydraulic height of 9.3 feet, providing a storage capacity of 72.19 acre-feet and a surface area of 16.07 acres. It is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and is subject to state jurisdiction, permitting, inspection, and enforcement.
Despite its low hazard potential, Oknoname 30212 poses a very high risk in terms of its risk assessment, indicating the importance of regular maintenance and monitoring. The dam features a controlled spillway and a single outlet valve, with a history of inspections every 5 years. While its condition assessment is currently not rated, the dam serves as a crucial water resource infrastructure in the region, contributing to the management of Oak Creek's water flow and supporting the local community's water supply needs.
Managed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, Oknoname 30212 plays a vital role in water resource management and climate resilience efforts in Oklahoma. With its strategic location and design, this dam represents a key component of the state's infrastructure for water supply, highlighting the collaboration between private ownership and government agencies in ensuring the safety and sustainability of water resources in the region.

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.
