Summary
This structure, designed by USDA NRCS, serves multiple purposes including providing habitat for fish and wildlife. With a dam height of 13.4 feet and a storage capacity of 70.46 acre-feet, this pond covers a surface area of 7.4 acres and has a drainage area of 0.32 square miles.
The dam on Oknoname 30230 features a controlled spillway and has a low hazard potential. While the structure is currently in "Not Rated" condition, it is subject to regular inspections with a frequency of every 5 years. Despite its low hazard potential, the risk assessment for this pond indicates a very high risk level. It is important for water resource and climate enthusiasts to keep an eye on the management and maintenance of this structure to ensure the safety of the surrounding community and environment.
Overall, Oknoname 30230 is a vital resource for fish and wildlife in the area, providing both habitat and recreational opportunities. Its presence contributes to the ecological diversity of the region and underscores the importance of proper water resource management. As climate change continues to impact water systems, it is essential to monitor and maintain structures like Oknoname 30230 to ensure their long-term sustainability and functionality.

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.
