Completed in 1940, the Project’s Pensacola Dam is the longest multi-arched dam in the world. The Pensacola Dam impounds the waters of the Grand River to form the Grand Lake O’ The Cherokees (Grand Lake). Grand Lake encompasses approximately 46,500 surface acres of water and 1,300 miles of shoreline. The Project boundary is located in close proximity to the shoreline and privately owned land is generally found mere feet from the water’s edge. Since its creation, Grand Lake has been a popular recreational and residential destination. During its history, Grand Lake has hosted the National Governor’s Conference and several nationally recognized fishing tournaments. It is the home of the nation’s oldest long distance regatta on an inland lake and the oldest yacht club in Oklahoma. Current uses of the shoreline include residential and commercial development, agriculture, and wildlife management areas. Grand Lake also has considerable value as an environmental resource. It contains significant aquatic and terrestrial habitat for a host of species. Additionally, the shoreline serves an important function in the local ecology.

  • Appendix B Revision Staff Report
    PROPOSED CHAPTER 45-APPENDIX B “AREAS WITH WATERS OF RECREATIONAL AND/OR ECOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE” October 27, 2015 1 | Page Proposed Updates to Chapter 45-Appendix B, “Areas With Waters of Recreational and/or Ecological Significance” Introduction Oklahoma’s Water Quality Standards (OWQS) are comprised of three basic components: 1) beneficial uses that describe the purposes of a waterbody, 2) narrative and numeric criteria to protect those uses, and 3) an antidegradation policy to protect provide additional protection when water quality is higher than that prescribed by the use. To ensure protection, the antidegradation policy creates a tiered system, with each waterbody fitting appropriately within that protection scheme (OAC 785:45-5-25 & 46- 13). All waterbodies are given Tier 1 protection, which ensures “attainment or maintenance of an existing or designated beneficial use”. While Tier 1 is considered the “baseline” of protection, some waters receive higher levels of protection, and are classified as Tier 2 or 3 waters. Given Tier 3 protection, outstanding resource waters (ORW), such as scenic rivers, are protected from any degradation of water quality. Other water bodies are given one of four Tier 2 classifications—high quality waters (HQW), sensitive water supplies (SWS), culturally significant waters (CSW), or Appendix B waters. The reasons for Tier 2 protection and its implementation vary across these classifications, but generally either prohibit or limit new discharges or loading. Appendix B Revisions By rule, Appendix B waters are defined as “those waters of the state which are located within the boundaries of areas listed in Appendix B of this Chapter, including but not limited to the National and State parks, forests, wilderness areas, wildlife management areas, and wildlife refuges” and “may include those areas which are inhabited by federally listed, threatened or endangered species, and other appropriate areas” [OAC 785:45-5-25(c)(2)(A)].
