This book was released on 1981 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wigwam Lake Dam is located on Wigwam Run in Stroud Township, Monroe County, one mile east of Bartonsville, Pennsylvania. The original purpose of the impounded water was for ice making and recreation. Presently, the lake is being used for recreation. The overall appearance of the dam and its appurtenant structures is considered to be poor. The locations of observed deficiencies are shown on the Sketch Plan. The profile and typical sections of the dam are presented, and are based on field survey made on the day of inspection. The survey datum for this inspection was an approximate elevation obtained for the spillway crest from a USGS map. The construction drawings for the dam and appurtenant structures are shown. The elevations shown on the construction drawings are based on a different datum than that of the USGS map. Therefore, to convert the elevations shown on the appended construction drawings to the elevations used in this report, it is necessary to add 609 feet to the elevations shown on the appended drawings. On the inspection date (11/26/80), the lake level was 0.1 foot above the spillway crest (elevation 708 above mean sea level). Deficiencies observed during the field inspection are describes. Visible features of the dam are depicted in photographs.

Download or read book National Dam Inspection Program Monroe Lake Dam NDI I D Number PA 00633 PennDER I D Number 45 117 Delaware River Basin Bear Swamp Run Monroe County Pennsylvania Phase I Inspection Report written by Bernard M. Mihalcin and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monroe Lake Dam is located on Bear Swamp Run, a tributary to Marshall Creek, in Middle Smithfield Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania. The facility is less than five miles north of the community of Marshalls Creek, Pennsylvania and approximately eight miles north of the city of East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. Observations made during the visual inspection indicate the embankment is in fair condition. The structure is characterized as very irregular and poorly aligned both horizontally and vertically. The downstream embankment toe is partially inundated by water that may be attributable to seepage through the embankment and/or leakage through or around the conduit. The water is trapped in a trough area between the embankments of the dam and the downstream roadway. The condition may be exaggerated because the drainage culvert under the road appears to be partially obstructed. Minor erosion was observed along both the upstream and downstream dam faces. Although particularly evident along the upstream slope adjacent the outlet riser and along the steepest portions of the downstream slope, the erosion is not considered to be significant at this time. Field measurements indicate low areas along the embankment crest between one-half and two feet below the elevation of the left spillway wingwall. The crest is covered with gravel and the slopes with weedlike vegetation.

Book National Dam Inspection Program  Lynchwood Lake Dam  NDI ID Number PA 00773  DER ID Number 45 38   Delaware River Basin  Clear Run  Monroe County  Pennsylvania  Phase I Inspection Report

Download or read book National Dam Inspection Program Lynchwood Lake Dam NDI ID Number PA 00773 DER ID Number 45 38 Delaware River Basin Clear Run Monroe County Pennsylvania Phase I Inspection Report written by GANNETT FLEMING CORDDRY AND CARPENTER INC HARRISBURG PA. and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lynchwood Lake Dam is 1,685 feet long and 20 feet high at its maximum section. The dam has an irregular alignment and consists of a rock-filled, timber crib dam about 1,275 feet in length, flanked on each end with reaches of embankment. A dry, stone masonry wall is located along the downstream side of the timber crib section, and there is an earthfill section upstream from the timber crib. The main spillway is located in the timber crib section of the dam near the original stream bed location. It is a broad crested weir with three concrete steps. The auxiliary spillway consists of a reach of earthen embankment lined with concrete on its downstream side and with riprap on its upstream side. The crest is protected by vegetation. Based on visual inspection, available records, calculations, past operational performance, and according to criteria established for these studies, Lynchwood Lake Dam is judged to be unsafe, non-emergency, because the spillway capacity is rated as seriously inadequate. The existing spillways can pass only 14 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) before general overtopping of the dam occurs.

Download or read book National Dam Inspection Program Lake Quinn Dam NDI ID Number PA 00145 DER ID Number 64 43 Delaware River Basin Tributary of Middle Creek Wayne County Pennsylvania Phase I Inspection Report written by CORPS OF ENGINEERS BALTIMORE MD BALTIMORE DISTRICT. and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The visual inspection and review of available design and construction information indicate that Lake Quinn Dam is in fair condition. Deficiencies noted during the inspection included the lack of functional drawdown facilities and minor seepage through the masonry near the right abutment. Based on the size and hazard classification of the dam, the recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) varies between 1/2 the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) and the PMF. The 1/2 PMF has been selected as the SDF due to the size of the dam and reservoir, and the downstream conditions. The hydrologic and hydraulic computations indicate that the combination of reservoir storage and spillway discharge capacity will pass only 3 percent of the PMF without overtopping the dam. Overtopping the dam could cause failure, which would lead to a significant increase in downstream loss of life and property damage. Therefore, the spillway for Lake Quinn Dam is considered to be seriously inadequate, and the dam is judged to be unsafe, non-emergency.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the criteria established for these studies, Elk Lake Dam is judged to be in fair condition. The recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) for the size and hazard classification of the dam is the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). The existing spillway will pass about 84 percent of the PMF before overtopping of the dam occurs. The spillway capacity is rated as inadequate. Several deficiencies were observed at the dam. The most serious is the probable lack of an adequate impervious barrier through the dam. Although some maintenance has been performed, the existing maintenance program could be upgraded. The following remedial measures, listed in approximate order of priority, are recommended to be undertaken by the Owner without delay: (1) Clear brush and debris on and adjacent to the dam. (2) Engage the services of a professional engineer experienced in the design and construction of dams. Utilize his advice in removing the trees on and near the embankment. If any seepage becomes evident after the brush, trees, and debris are removed, the condition should be assessed by the engineer. (3) Fill the slots by the spillway bridge with concrete or other suitable impervious material. (4) Fill the burrowing animal hole adjacent to the spillway with suitable impervious material.

Mihalcin and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wild Acres Lake Dam is located on a branch of Hornbecks Creek in Delaware Township, Pike County, Pennsylvania. The facility is an integral part of the surrounding development known as Wild Acres. The community is nestled in the mountains of Pike County less than five miles west of U.S. Route 209 which parallels the Delaware River in this area. Observations made during the visual inspection indicate the embankment and adjacent dike are in good condition. Heavy brush growth and small trees were observed along the embankment crest and upstream face. No evidence of seepage through the downstream embankment face, excess settlement, sloughing, erosion or animal burrows was encountered by the inspection team. Some rock slope protection has been displaced immediately adjacent the spillway right wingwall, leaving small bare areas on both the upstream and downstream embankment faces. The top of the concrete corewall exhibits excessive cracking and spalling along its entire length except for that portion associated with the dike along the right abutment which is in relatively good condition.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Penn Lake Dam is an earth embankment approximately 350 feet long and 44 feet high at its maximum section. The spillway consists of twelve 42-inch diameter, 20-foot long pipes located approximately 1,000 feet left (looking downstream) of the dam. Earth swales on both sides of the battery of pipes function as auxiliary spillways. The 56 acre reservoir is used for recreation by members of the Penn Lake Association. Examination of the results of the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses indicates that the spillway (pipes and swales) is capable of passing 48 per cent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping of the embankment. Failure of the dam would increase the hazard of loss of life downstream of the dam. The capacity of the spillway system is therefore classified as 'Seriously Inadequate.' The dam is considered to be unsafe (non-emergency). Based on visual observations made during the date of the inspection, the dam is considered to be in poor condition.

Download or read book National Dam Inspection Program Silver Lake Dam NDI ID PA 00791 PA DER 9 78 Delaware River Basin Van Horn Creek Pennsylvania Phase I Inspection Report written by Peter C. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silver Lake Dam is an earth embankment about 350 feet long and 15 feet high at its maximum section. An ungated overflow masonry spillway is located at the approximate midpoint of the embankment. Silver Lake Dam has a maximum storage capacity of 51 acre feet and a maximum height of 15 feet. The dam is therefore classified as 'Small' size structure. Because of the potential for the possible loss of a few lives and appreciable property losses in the damage area, located about 0.6 miles downstream, the dam is considered to be a 'Significant' hazard structure. The selected Spillway Design Flood (SDF) for Silver Lake Dam ('Small' size, 'Significant' hazard) is the one hundred year storm. An examination of the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses indicates that the spillway is not capable of passing the SDF without the dam being overtopped. The spillway is classified as 'Inadequate'. Based on visual observations and a review of the information obtained from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources, Silver Lake Dam appears to be in fair condition.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lower Hemlock Dam is a 420 foot long earthfill structure with a maximum embankment height of 15 feet. Plate IV, Appendix E, indicates a concrete core wall along the centerline of dam. The top of the dam is used as a public roadway and has a bituminous surface. The spillway is located near the left abutment of the embankment. A fish guard-screen is attached to the upstream side of the concrete ogee section. The roadway crosses the spillway discharge channel immediately downstream from the weir (Photograph 7, Appendix C). The bridge is a concrete slab deck structure supported on two piers and two abutment walls. The outlet control structure is constructed differently from that shown on Plate IV, Appendix E. It actually consists of a valve chamber with the valve located on the inside of the upstream wall. Water is discharged directly into the valve chamber and flows from there through a 24inch diameter outlet pipe under the embankment to the downstream toe. The valve chamber is covered with a large overhanging concrete slab and is accessible by a footbridge from the crest of the dam. (Author).

Download or read book National Dam Inspection Program Walker Lake Dam NDI ID Number PA 00317 DER ID Number 52 127 Delaware River Basin Pike County Pennsylvania Phase I Inspection Report written by Hendrik Jongsma and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the visual inspection, past performance and the available engineering data, the dam and its appurtenant structures appear to be in fair condition. In accordance with the Corps of Engineers' evaluation guidelines, the size classification of this dam is small and the hazard classification is high. These classifications indicate that the Spillway Design Flood (SDF) should be in the range of one-half the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) to the full PMF. The recommended SDF for this flood control structure is the PMF. The spillway capacity is adequate for passing 71 percent of the PMF peak inflow without overtopping the dam. The spillway, therefore, is considered to be inadequate, but not seriously inadequate.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East Stroudsburg Dam is a 47.5 foot high earth and rock fill embankment with a concrete core wall. The dam is located across Sambo Creek and is about 740 feet long. The structure impounds a 57-acre lake with a 914 acre-foot normal storage capacity. Available records indicate that the core wall is founded in clay or hardpan. Upstream of the core wall, embankment materials consist of compacted soils. The upstream slope is protected with hand placed riprap. The slope is 2H:1V above elevation 867 (USGS Datum) and below elevation 867 the slope increases to 2.5H:1V. The compacted fill section downstream of the core wall has a 1H:1V slope and the overlying hand placed rock section has a slope of 2H:1V with a six foot berm at approximately elevation 873. The crest elevation is 893 with a measured width of 12 feet. The gatehouse is located about 320 feet from the right abutment. The best available section of this gatehouse is shown to Plate 5, Appendix E. The sluice gates are inside the gatehouse, one for the 24-inch intake pipe and one for the 24-inch discharge pipe. The intake is located at the upstream toe and the outlet discharges at the downstream toe into a rocklined channel.
