About this map

Chitwood and its surrounding water management infrastructure define this landscape in Grady County. The area is heavily defined by a complex network of flood control measures along the Roaring Creek drainage system, including numerous structures such as Roaring Creek Site 11 Dam and Roaring Creek Site 101 Dam. The topography is shaped by the confluence of several waterways, with Middle Roaring Creek and East Roaring Creek feeding into the main branch, while Sandy Creek and Coon Creek drain the southeastern portions of the quadrangle.

Transportation in this rural Oklahoma corridor is anchored by the Chitwood Expy and a grid of section-line roads like Cedar Hill Rd and Cemetery Rd. The map documents a highly engineered watershed where smaller tributaries like Rush Creek are also monitored through specific sites like Rush Creek Site 7 Dam. This survey provides a clear view of the intersection between Oklahoma's agricultural road networks and its extensive local water conservation efforts at the start of the 2010s.
