This book was released on 1979 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marshwood Dam is two homogeneous earthfill embankments with masonry core-walls. The dam was built in a natural saddle. The embankments impound water within the saddle. The dam has a main spillway and an auxiliary spillway. The main spillway is located at the right abutment of the South Embankment. It has a sharp-crested concrete weir with a crest length of 100 feet. The auxiliary spillway is a canal about 300 feet left of the South Embankment. Based on visual inspection, available records, calculations and past operational performance, Marshwood Dam is judged to be in fair condition. The spillway can pass 65 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping of the dam. The spillway capacity is rated as inadequate. This rating is dependent on implementation of some of the recommendations herein. If the low areas on the embankments were raised 0.6 foot to the design elevation, the spillway can pass 80 percent of the PMF. The spillway capacity would still be rated as inadequate.

Jeffrey Kimball and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dam is located approximately 2 miles northwest of the Village of Colley, Wilmot Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania. The inspection consisted of: Visual inspection of the retaining structure, abutments and toe; Examination of the spillway facilities, exposed portion of any outlet works and other appurtenant works; Observations affecting the runoff potential of the drainage basin; and Evaluation of the downstream area hazard potential. The dam appears to be in good condition and adequately maintained. From a brief survey conducted during the inspection, it was noted that the low spot on the crest of the dam exits at the top left edge of the spillway crest. It was observed during the inspection that a new concrete cap had been placed on the structure. The concrete appeared to be in good condition. The dam was constructed with dry rubble masonry with an upstream earthfill. No concrete exists on the downstream face of the structure or on the bench located along the downstream face of the structure. The rubble masonry appeared to be in good condition and well maintained.

Mihalcin and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lake Jean Dam is a zoned earth embankment approximately 26 feet high and 780 long, including spillway. The emergency spillway is an uncontrolled, rectangular, concrete and rock cut chute channel located at the right abutment. The crest of the spillway is 20 feet long and is spanned by a concrete bridge which supports a portion of the bituminous roadway that covers the embankment crest. Drawdown capability is provided by means of a 30-inch diameter cast iron blowoff pipe controlled at the inlet by a 30-inch diameter sluice gate. The facility consists of a main dam (Lake Jean Dam) and two appurtenant saddle dams (east and west dikes). Results of the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis indicate the facility will pass and/or store about 73 percent of the PMF prior to overtopping the east dike. Thus, based on the screening criteria contained in the recommended guidelines, the spillway is considered to be inadequate, but not seriously inadequate. Should the saddle dams be regraded to their design elevation, the spillway would then pass floods in excess of the PMF and would be considered adequate.
