Summary
Built in 1979 by USDA NRCS, this earth dam stands at a height of 36 feet and stretches over 2000 feet, providing a storage capacity of 878 acre-feet. With a primary purpose of flood risk reduction, this dam also caters to fire protection, stock, small fish pond, and recreation needs in the region.
Managed by the local government and regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Lakeview WS SCS Site 7 Dam undergoes regular state inspections to ensure its operational safety and compliance with regulations. The dam features a slide and uncontrolled outlet gates for water release, with a moderate risk assessment rating. Despite the absence of a hazard potential rating, the dam's condition remains unrated, indicating a need for further evaluation and maintenance to uphold its effectiveness in flood control and water resource management.
As part of the Tulsa District in Texas, Lakeview WS SCS Site 7 Dam remains a vital component of the region's water infrastructure, contributing to the overall environmental sustainability and water security. With its strategic location and design, this dam plays a crucial role in managing water resources, mitigating flood risks, and supporting various recreational activities, showcasing the importance of resilient and well-maintained infrastructure in the face of changing climate patterns.

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.
