Summary
Constructed in 2008 by CDS/MUERY SERVICES of San Antonio, TX, this earth dam stands at a height of 22.9 feet and has a storage capacity of 143.56 acre-feet. With a normal storage capacity of 85 acre-feet and a maximum discharge of 404.55 cubic feet per second, Hunnicutt North plays a crucial role in supporting agricultural activities in the region.
Managed by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, the dam has been designated as a low hazard potential structure with a very high risk assessment rating. Despite its condition being listed as "Not Rated," this dam serves as a vital resource for water storage and irrigation purposes in the area. The controlled spillway and valve outlet system provide necessary safety measures for managing water levels and ensuring the dam's integrity.
While Hunnicutt North has not been recently inspected since 2011, its location in Custer County, Oklahoma, highlights its significance in water resource management and climate resilience efforts. As climate change continues to impact water availability and quality, the proper maintenance and monitoring of dams like Hunnicutt North are essential for sustainable water resource management and agricultural productivity 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.
