Reclamation Information Sharing Environment (RISE)

Mountain Park Dam forms Tom Steed Reservoir and regulates natural flows of West Otter Creek and diverted flows from Elk Creek to provide municipal and industrial water supplies for the cities of Altus, Snyder, and Frederick, Oklahoma. The water is conveyed from the reservoir to the project cities through an aqueduct system that consists of 40 miles of pipeline, two pumping plants, a chlorination station, and other appurtenant facilities. Mountain Park Dam and Tom Steed Reservoir are owned by the Bureau of Reclamation and operated by Mountain Park Master Conservancy District.
