This book was released on 1980 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This flood control dam consists of a 1000-foot-long earthfill embankment with a maximum height of 25 feet. Seven hundred fifty feet of the embankment crosses the valley, the other 250 feet ties the embankment to higher ground in the left abutment. The principal spillway is a drop inlet structure with an orifice opening and discharges through a 30-inch diameter pipe. This spillway is designed to handle a 100 year flood. For any larger floods the emergency spillway is required. This grassed earth spillway is located in the right abutment and has its design crest elevation 4.6 feet below the top of embankment. The emergency spillway has a channel bottom width of about 60 feet. Based on the visual inspection, past performance and the available engineering data, the dam and its appurtenant structures appear to be in good condition. The spillway capacity is adequate to pass the PMF peak inflow without overtopping the dam.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greene-Dreher Dam is a 20-foot high earthern embankment, 1,000 feet long which impounds a 152 acre-foot flood water retention pool. Total estimated volume of fill is approximately 30,000 cubic yards. The zoned embankment was constructed on natural soils without a cutoff trench or a grout curtain. The embankment contains three material zones; Zone 1, a relatively impervious core of silt and and silty sand; Zone 2, composed of silty gravel and silty sand; and an outer shell of Zone 3 material, described as rock larger than 6 inches in diameter. The embankment crest is 12 feet wide at a design settled elevation of 2,036 feet, and both upstream and downstream slopes are 3H:1V. The downstream section of the embankment contains a filter blanket approximately 2 feet thick, 30 feet wide and 320 feet long. The filter blanket is drained by a 6-inch diameter perforated corrugated metal pipe connected to a 6-inch diameter pipe which outlets adjacent to the principal spillway outlet.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the criteria established for these studies, Freethy 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 classification of the dam varies between 1/2 of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) and the PMF. Based on the size of the dam and reservoir, the 1/2 PMF is selected as the SDF. The existing spillway will pass only about 2 percent of the PMF before overtopping of the dam occurs. It is judged that the dam could not withstand the depth and duration of overtopping during storms of only 20 percent of the PMF. Failure of the dam would cause an increased hazard for loss of life downstream. Overall, the dam is judged to be in good condition.

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 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.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on criteria established for these studies, Lake Watawga 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 classification of the dam varies from 1/2 the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) to 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 14 percent of the PMF before overtopping of the dam occurs. It is judged that the dam would fail during the PMF. Failure of the dam would increase the hazard for loss of life downstream. As a whole, the dam is judged to be in fair condition. Deficiencies exist that are considered to be indicative of potential stability problems for the spillway. There is no functional outlet works at the dam. Maintenance at the dam is inadequate.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The visual inspection and review of available design and construction information indicate that Bronson Pond Dam is in fair condition. The primary deficiency noted during the inspection was the lack of any spillway or outlet facilities for the dam. Based on the size and hazard classification of the dam, the recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) varies between the 100-year flood and one-half the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). Based on the size of the dam and reservoir, and the downstream conditions, the 100-year flood has been selected as the SDF. The hydrologic and hydraulic computations indicate that the combinations of reservoir storage and overflow discharge capacity pass the 100-year flood without overtopping the dam. For this reason, the overflow capacity for Bronson Pond Dam is considered to be inadequate.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dam G is a homogeneous earthfill embankment with a concrete core-wall. The embankment is 490 feet long and 19 feet high at maximum section. There are two outlet works at the dam. The first outlet works, which is near the right end of the embankment, consists of a concrete intake structure, two 24-inch diameter cast-iron pipes, and a valve house. This outlet works is connected to the water supply system. The second outlet works, which is near the left end of the dam, is similar to the first except it consists of a single 24-inch diameter pipe. The second outlet works provides the emergency drawdown capability. The concrete chute spillway is at the left abutment of the dam. Its crest is 3.0 feet below the design elevation of the top of the dam and is 75 feet long. The approach channel is short and concrete paved. The exit channel is a continuation of the chute. A bridge extends across the spillway crest. It is supported by two piers.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on visual inspection, the Deckers Dam is judged to be in good condition. The spillway capacity of Deckers Dam is rated as adequate. The unknown condition of the valve, regulating flow through the outlet pipe, precluded assessment of the outlet works. Observations during pressure flow conditions in the outlet pipe are essential to the safety evaluation of the dam. A ready access to an operable valve, or other method of drawing down the reservoir level during emergencies, is required. Although the dam and appurtenances appear to be in good repair, there is no formal maintenance program for the facility. There is no warning system and evacuation plan in effect at the present time.
