This book was released on 1978 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fawn Lake Dam is owned by the Lake Wynonah Property Owners Association and is located in South Mannheim Township in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. The dam was designed by the original owner, American Realty Service Corporation of Memphis, Tennessee. The embankment was completed on May 12, 1971, and has been in service ever since. The facility is judged to be in reasonably good operating condition. Calculations indicate that the spillway systems are capable of passing the probable maximum flood (PMF). Therefore, the spillway is considered to be 'Adequate'. Seepage was noted emanating from the downstream slope and along the toe of the dam, but there were no indications at this time that this condition is potentially hazardous. No indications of slope distortion, embankment slides or other condition indicative of a potentially unstable embankment were noted.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upper Owl Creek Dam is an earthfill embankment with a concrete core wall located on the centerline of the dam. The 9-inch thick concrete core wall is founded on rock over most of its length. The left end of this wall is founded on sandy clay. The embankment has a length of approximately 1300 feet with a maximum fill height of 38 feet. The spillway is located in the right abutment and has a crest length of 50 feet at approximately 4 feet below the top of dam. 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 spillway capacity is inadequate to pass the PMF (Probable Maximum Flood) peak inflow without overtopping the dam. The project is capable of passing 45 percent of the PMF without overtopping.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birdsboro Dam is an approximately 40-foot high rolled earth embankment constructed across Indian Run Creek. The 430-foot long dam impounds an 8-acre reservoir. Very limited data exists regarding physical features of the dam. However, it is known that local borrow material from within the reservoir area was used for the construction. The downstream slope is a 1.5H:IV slope, and the upstream slope is covered with hand-placed riprap on a slope of approximately 2.5H:IV. It is not known if there is a cutoff wall, nor is it known if a grout curtain was installed.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this inspection is to determine if the dam constitutes a hazard to human life and property. The dam's location is Tremont Township, Schuylkill County U.S.G.S. Quadrangle - Pine Grove, Pa. The general appearance of the Black Creek Intake Dam is good, except that a heavy growth of trees covers the downstream slope of the embankment (Photograph No. 2). The slopes appear to be stable. A considerable amount of water was flowing through rocks just beyond the downstream toe near the spillway. This water appears to originate from the spillway channel. The overall visual evaluation of these facilities indicates that the dam is in good condition. The trees on the embankment should be removed. The observed steady seepage beyond the toe of the embankment adjacent to the spillway outlet channel has been a long standing condition (40 + or - years) and is not considered to be a serious problem at this time.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the visual inspection, available records, calculations and past operational performance, Silver Creek Dam is judged to be in fair condition. The spillway and the low overbanks adjacent to the spillway have sufficient capacity to the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping the dam. Based on criteria established for these studies by the Department of the Army, Office of the Chief of Engineers (OCE), the spillway capacity is rated as adequate. The existing spillway and the adjacent overbanks can accommodate a flood with a peak inflow of 115 percent of the PMF peak flow. (Author).

This book was released on 1980 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lower Owl Creek Dam is owned by the Borough of Tamaqua, and the reservoir is used for water supply purposes. The original dam was built in 1882 or 1883, and several major renovations have been performed since, the latest being in 1928. The visual inspection disclosed that the emergency spillway has been partially filled in. The embankment is currently in good condition, and the siphon spillway is in fair condition. In accordance with criteria established by Federal (OCE) Guidelines, the recommended spillway design flood for this 'Small' size dam and 'High' hazard classification is one-half to the full Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). The one-half PMF has been selected as the spillway design flood. Hydrologic and hydraulic computations presented in Appendix D indicate that the combined siphon and emergency spillway structures are capable of discharging about 21 percent of the PMF without overtopping the embankment under existing conditions. If the emergency spillway was restored to its original condition, the spillway systems would be capable of discharging about 59 percent of the PMF without overtopping the embankment. As the structure will not pass the spillway design flood under existing conditions and is not assessed to fail during one-half the PMF, the spillway is considered to be 'Inadequate' but not 'Seriously Inadequate'.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bear Creek Dam is a hollow reinforced concrete structure of the 'Ambursen' type approximately 450 feet long and 64 feet high at its central portion. The dam is founded on a full concrete mat with an upstream concrete cutoff wall extending into natural rock. The dam was built in 1915. The dam is classified as an 'Intermediate' size dam by virtue of its 64-foot height. The dam is also considered a 'High' hazard structure because in the event of failure there is a possibility of loss of life and extreme property damage downstream.
