This book was released on 1980 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on criteria established for these studies, Mountain Lake Dam is judged to be unsafe, nonemergency, because the spillway capacity is seriously inadequate. The recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) for the size and hazard category of the dam varies between 1/2 of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) and the PMF. Based on the criteria and the downstream conditions, the selected SDF is the PMF. Based on existing conditions, the spillway will pass about 20 percent of the PMF before overtopping of the dam occurs. Failure of the dam would increase the hazard to loss of life downstream. If the dam were raised to its design elevation, the spillway would pass about 28 percent of the PMF. The spillway capacity would still be rated as seriously inadequate. As a whole, the dam is judged to be in poor condition. Lack of maintenance has caused the spillway to deteriorate to such an extent that it is on the verge of collapse. It is unlikely that the spillway could withstand any flood of significant duration. (Author).

This book was released on 1980 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on avaliable records, visual inspection, calculations, and past operational performance, Brown's Lake Dam is judged to be in poor condition. Based on the size and hazard classification of the dam, the recommended Spillway Design Flood is the Probalble Maximum Flood (PMF). The spillway can pass about 82 percent of the PMF. Since the dam cannot pass the PMF but can pass the 1/2 PMF, the spillway capacity is rated as inadequate. Deficiencies exist that are considered to be pertinent to the stability of the dam. The deficiencies include the following: seepage, steep slopes, a depression on the top of the dam, growth of trees on the dam, and holes and a depression on the downstream slope of the dam. The type of design and methods of construction increase the concern for the deficiencies. The condition of the outlet works is unsatisfatory. There are no upstream closure facilities. Maintenance of the dam is inadequate. (Author).

This book was released on 1980 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on criteria established for these studies, Meadow Run Dam is judged to be unsafe, nonemergency, because the spillway capacity is seriously inadequate. The recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) for the size and hazard category of the dam varies between 1/2 of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) and the PMF. Based on the criteria and the downstream conditions, the selected SDF is the PMF. Based on existing conditions, the spillway will pass about 13 percent of the PMF before overtopping of the dam occurs. Failure of the dam would increase the hazard to loss of life downstream. If the dam were raised to its design elevation, the spillway would pass about 35 percent of the PMF. The spillway capacity would still be rated as seriously inadequate. As a whole, the dam is judged to be in poor condition. Because of the nature of its construction, the steep downstream slope, and cracks that have developed on the top of the embankment, the stability of the embankment is considered marginal. There is no evidence to suggest that the emergency drawdown facility is operational. It is in poor condition. Maintenance at the dam is inadequate. (Author).

This book was released on 1980 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on visual inspection, available records, calculations, and past operational performance, Pinetree Lake Dam is judged to be in good condition. The recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) for the size and the hazard classification of the dam varies between the 100-year flood and the 1/2 Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). Based on the criteria and the downstream conditions, the SDF is the 1/2 PMF. The spillway will pass the PMF with 0.5 foot of freeboard. The spillway capacity is rated as adequate. No stability problems were evident for the embankment. None of the observed deficiencies at the dam were considered an immediate hazard.

Mihalcin and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a visual inspection, operational history, and available engineering data, the dam is considered to be in fair condition. The size classification of the facility is small and the hazard classification is considered to be high. In accordance with the recommended guidelines, the Spillway Design Flood (SDF) ranges between the 1/2 PMF (Probable Maximum Flood) and the PMF. Due to the high potential for damage to downstream structures and possible loss of life, the SDF is considered to be the PMF. Results of the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis indicate the facility will pass and/or store approximately 50 percent of the PMF prior to embankment overtopping at the low area in the embankment crest. Consequently, the spillway is assessed as being inadequate, but not seriously inadequate. Recommended owner procedures are listed.

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 1981 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lake Akiba Dam is a 360-foot long, 22-foot high earth embankment dam, constructed in 1926 to provide a lake for recreational use. The maximum storage capacity of Lake Akiba is 280 acre-feet. The dam has a crest width of approximately seven feet and side slopes both upstream and downstream which average 2H:1V. Based upon the visual inspection of the dam review of the information provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources (Der), the Lake Akiba Dam is considered to be in fair condition. The spillway, however, is in poor condition an should be investigated immediately.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bear Creek Lake Dam is a rock filled timber crib structure approximately 325 feet long and 17 feet high at its maximum section. An ungated drop spillway with an 158-foot long sharp crested weir is located approximately 60 feet from the right abutment (looking downstream). The 80 acre lake is used for recreation by the residents of Bear Creek Village. It is unknown when the dam was constructed. In the state inspection report of April, 1915 it is stated, 'This dam was constructed a great many years ago, but it has been repaired from time to time, so that more than likely none of the original structure is now in existence.' Examination of the results of the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis indicate that the drop spillway is capable of passing 11 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping of the embankment. Failure of the dam would significantly increase the hazard to loss of life downstream of the dam. Therefore, the capacity of the drop spillway is classified as 'seriously inadequate.' The dam is considered to be 'unsafe (non-emergency).'

This book was released on 1980 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hallowood Lake Dam is a homogeneous, earthfill embankment. It is 31 feet high at its maximum section and 595 feet long. The spillway is located at the right abutment. The spillway consists of an approach channel, a concrete weir, an outlet channel, and a stilling basin. The crest length of the spillway is 55.0 feet. Based on visual inspection, available records, calculations, past operational performance, and according to criteria established for these studies, Hallowood Lake Dam is judged to be in good condition. The spillway will pass about 82 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping of the dam. No stability problems were evident for the embankment or the appurtenant structures at the time of the visual inspection. The ability of the outlet works to function is unknown because it has not been recently operated. Maintenance of the dam and appurtenant structures is considered inadequate.

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.

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.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on available records, visual inspection, calculations, and past operational performance, Lake Paupackan Dam is judged to be in fair condition. Considering the size and hazard classification of the dam, the recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) varies between the 1/2 Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) and the PMF. The 1/2 PMF was, in this case, selected as the SDF. The spillway and reservoir, under existing conditions, will pass approximately 19 percent of the PMF before overtopping of the dam occurs. The spillway is, therefore, rated as inadequate.
