Download or read book National Dam Safety Program River Cement Co Lake Dam MO 30420 Mississippi Kaskaskia St Louis Basin Jefferson County Missouri Phase I Inspection Report written by HORNER AND SHIFRIN INC ST LOUIS MO. and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the visual inspection, the present general condition of the dam is considered to be satisfactory. The following deficiencies were noticed during the inspection and are considered to have an adverse effect on the overall safety and future operation of the dam. A minor collection of floating debris is lodged within the drop inlet spillway structure at the upstream end of the outlet pipe. An accumulation of debris within the spillway structure can obstruct the outlet pipe resulting in a loss of discharge capacity and unwarranted flooding of the lake. Several beaver dams exist within the downstream channel between the dam and the juncture of the channel with Cliffdale Hollow, a distance of about 1,000 feet. Damming of the channel is believed to be responsible for the tailwater pool that lies adjacent to the downstream toe of the dam. In addition, the outfall channel that lies between the outfall structure and the downstream channel is partially obstructed by small trees and brush.

Download or read book National Dam Safety Program Mach Lake Dam MO 30133 Mississippi Kaskaskia St Louis River Basin Perry County Missouri Phase I Inspection Report written by Steven L. Brady and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this inspection was to make an assessment of the general condition of the dam with respect to safety, based upon available data and visual inspection, in order to determine if the dam poses hazards to human life or property. The inspection and evaluation indicates that the combined spillways do not meet the criteria set forth in the guidelines for a dam having the above size and hazard potential. The combined spillways will pass 14 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood without overtopping. The Probable Maximum Flood is defined as the flood discharge that may be expected from the most severe combination of critical meteorologic and hydrologic conditions that are reasonably possible in the region. The guidelines require that a dam of small size with a high downstream hazard potential pass 50 to 100 percent of the PMF. Considering the low height of dam (33 feet) and the small storage capacity (103 acre-ft), fifty percent of the PMF has been determined to be the appropriate spillway design flood. The 100-year flood (1 percent probability flood) will not overtop the dam. The 1 percent probability flood is one that has a 1 percent chance of being exceeded in any given year.

Book National Dam Safety Program  Fon Du Lac  MO 10699   Mississippi   Kaskaskia   St  Louis Basin  Jefferson County  Missouri  Phase I Inspection Report

Download or read book National Dam Safety Program Fon Du Lac MO 10699 Mississippi Kaskaskia St Louis Basin Jefferson County Missouri Phase I Inspection Report written by Henry M. Reitz and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fon-du-lac Subdivision Dam was inspected by an interdisciplinary team of engineers. The purpose of the inspection was to make an assessment of the general condition of the dam with respect to safety, based upon available data and visual inspection, in order to determine if the dam poses hazards to human life or property. Failure would threaten the life and property of ten families and cause appreciable damage to two county roads. Our inspection and evaluation indicates the dam is deficient in that the spillway is inadequate. The guidelines for a dam having the above size and hazard potential require that the spillway be capable of passing a one-half PMF (Probable Maximum Flood). The Probable Maximum Flood is defined as the flood discharge that may be expected from the most severe combination of critical meteorologic and hydrologic conditions reasonably possible in the region. Considering the small volume of water impounded, the large floodplain downstream and the three groups of farm buildings downstream, one-half PMF is the appropriate spillway design flood. A 20% PMF will begin to overtop the dam. The lake and spillway are adequate to contain a 1% annual probability flood (100-year flood) without overtopping the dam.

Book National Dam Safety Program  Sunrise Lake Dam  MO 31190   Mississippi   Kaskaskia   St  Louis Basin  Jefferson County  Missouri  Phase I Inspection Report

Download or read book National Dam Safety Program Sunrise Lake Dam MO 31190 Mississippi Kaskaskia St Louis Basin Jefferson County Missouri Phase I Inspection Report written by Walter G. Shifrin and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sunrise Lake Dam was inspected. The overall condition of the dam appears to be fair; however, several deficiencies were noted by the inspection team. These deficiencies included: seepage under the spillway slab; cracks and spalling of the concrete in the spillway; the erosion of the banks of the discharge channel of the spillway; the erosion of the upstream slope due to wave action; several shallow surface sloughs observed on the embankment slopes; the presence of saplingss and brush on the embankment slopes and trees along the downstream, right abutment/embankment contact; a need for periodic maintenance of the grass cover; and a lack of a maintenance schedule. There exists a need for periodic inspection by a qualified engineer. The lack of seepage and stability analyses on record is also a deficiency that should be corrected.

Book National Dam Safety Program  Spring Lake Dam  MO 31180   Mississippi   Kaskaskia   St  Louis River Basin  Cape Girardeau County  Missouri  Phase I Inspection Report

Download or read book National Dam Safety Program Spring Lake Dam MO 31180 Mississippi Kaskaskia St Louis River Basin Cape Girardeau County Missouri Phase I Inspection Report written by Nathan Wilcoxon and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spring Lake Dam is an earthfill structure approximately 21 feet high and 400 feet long at the crest. The appurtenant works consist of a drop-inlet pipe principal spillway and a trapezoidal channel cut into natural ground at the left abutment which acts as an emergency spillway. Our inspection and evaluation indicates that the spillway has not met the criteria set forth in the guidelines for a small size dam in the high hazard potential category. This structure has the capability to hold and pass approximately 40 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) before overtopping. The dam appeared to be in fair condition. Deficiencies visually observed by the inspection team were: (1) a row of trees (approximately 8) along the upstream face of the dam; (2) a significant potential for restriction to flow into the principal spillway intake; (3) some minor erosion on the downstream face of the dam; (4) the emergency spillway channel is partially obstructed by six steel drums and a fence; and (5) minor seepage into the principal spillway conduit from within the embankment.

Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dam and lake are located on an unnamed tributary of La Barque Creek. The dam impounds water for the purpose of private recreation for surrounding residential property owners, who are members of the Lakewood Hills Property Owners Association. Major defects, including reconstruction of the upstream slope of the dam and sealing of the lake bottom, observed during this inspection are, according to the owner, planned to be corrected sometime this summer (1978) when a contract for remedial work on the dam and lake area is awarded. The remaining deficiencies observed during the inspection are not considered of major consequence to warrant immediate remedial action.

Book National Dam Safety Program  Upper Valle Mines Dam  MO 30370   Mississippi   Kaskaskia   St  Louis Basin  Jefferson County  Missouri  Phase I Inspection Report

Download or read book National Dam Safety Program Upper Valle Mines Dam MO 30370 Mississippi Kaskaskia St Louis Basin Jefferson County Missouri Phase I Inspection Report written by Leonard M. Krazynski and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Upper Valle Mines Dam is an abandoned tailings dam constructed to impound sand, silt and clay tailings produced by the milling of barite ore. The dam is reported to be primarily an earth embankment with a relatively thin mantle of gravel-size tailings (chat), and cobble- to boulder-size bullrock. Both the upstream and downstream faces of the dam are heavily vegetated with brush and trees up to 18 in. diameter. The reservoir is nearly filled with fine tailings. Much of the impoundment area is densely vegetated with brush and trees. The spillway is a broad trapezoidal notch cut at the left abutment. The notch is cut into the native soil and will likely be moderately erodible during periods of flood flow. The visual inspection and evaluation of available information indicate the dam is in generally poor condition. This judgment is based on the inability of the spillway to pass the 1 percent probability-of-occurrence (100 year) flood without overtopping the embankment, the hazard of erosion posed to the embankment in the event of overtopping, the dense vegetation on the embankment, as well as the steep slopes and evidence of limited past slumping on the downstream face of the dam.
