Dziubek and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siegel Marsh Dam was originally constructed as a 9 foot high earth embankment with a single concrete spillway 136 feet long. At a later date, the embankment was raised 1.5 feet, the spillway was raised 3.5 feet, and an additional spillway with a length of 126 feet was added. The impoundment is situated in State Game Lands No. 218 and is used for wildlife propagation. The embankment currently consists of three sections separated by two spillway structures. The spillway currently consists of two trapezoidal shaped, broad-crested concrete weirs separated by an earth embankment. A minimum flow of at least 1.71 c.f.s. out of the reservoir is maintained by a set of stop logs on the left side of the right spillway. All of the stop logs can be removed to drain the reservoir. Hydraulic/hydrologic evaluations revealed that the spillway will pass the 1/2 Probable Maximum Flood (1/2 PMF) without overtopping the dam. A spillway design flood (SDF) in the range of the 1/2 PMF to Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) is required for Siegel Marsh Dam. The 1/2 PMF was chosen as the SDF because the dam is on the low side of the 'Intermediate' size category due to the low height of the embankment. The spillways are therefore considered 'adequate'. The inspection revealed certain items of remedial work which should be performed immediately by the owner.

Book excerpt: ‘KUMBA AFRICA’, is a compilation of African Short Stories written as fiction by Sampson Ejike Odum, nostalgically taking our memory back several thousands of years ago in Africa, reminding us about our past heritage. It digs deep into the traditional life style of the Africans of old, their beliefs, their leadership, their courage, their culture, their wars, their defeat and their victories long before the emergence of the white man on the soil of Africa. As a talented writer of rich resource and superior creativity, armed with in-depth knowledge of different cultures and traditions in Africa, the Author throws light on the rich cultural heritage of the people of Africa when civilization was yet unknown to the people. The book reminds the readers that the Africans of old kept their pride and still enjoyed their own lives. They celebrated victories when wars were won, enjoyed their New yam festivals and villages engaged themselves in seasonal wrestling contest etc; Early morning during harmattan season, they gathered firewood and made fire inside their small huts to hit up their bodies from the chilling cold of the harmattan. That was the Africa of old we will always remember. In Africa today, the story have changed. The people now enjoy civilized cultures made possible by the influence of the white man through his scientific and technological process. Yet there are some uncivilized places in Africa whose people haven’t tested or felt the impact of civilization. These people still maintain their ancient traditions and culture. In everything, we believe that days when people paraded barefooted in Africa to the swarmp to tap palm wine and fetch firewood from there farms are almost fading away. The huts are now gradually been replaced with houses built of blocks and beautiful roofs. Thanks to modern civilization. Donkeys and camels are no longer used for carrying heavy loads for merchants. They are now been replaced by heavy trucks and lorries. African traditional methods of healing are now been substituted by hospitals. In all these, I will always love and remember Africa, the home of my birth and must respect her cultures and traditions as an AFRICAN AUTHOR.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upper and Lower Dams consist of two dams in series designed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service (SCS) for floodwater detention and waterfowl habitat enhancement. Lower Dam is the primary structure upon which this report focuses because the majority of Upper Dam becomes inundated by backwater from Lower Dam before the emergency spillways at Lower Dam are activated. Hydraulic/hydrologic evaluations revealed that the spillways will pass the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping Lower Dam. A spillway design flood (SDF) equal to the PMF is required for Lower Dam. Therefore, the spillways are considered 'adequate.' The inspection revealed only one deficiency which should be corrected immediately, namely, the repair of the chipped concrete on the impact basin of Upper Dam.

Dziubek and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PA 485 is a zoned earthfill embankment with a total length of 630 feet, including the emergency spillway on the left abutment. The height and crest width of the embankment are 78 feet and 14 feet, respectively. The embankment was constructed using three zones of fill material. The principal spillway is a drop-inlet structure consisting of a two stage reinforced concrete riser connected to a 30 inch diameter reinforced concrete outlet pipe. The emergency spillway for the dam is located at the left abutment. It consists of a vegetated trapezoidal channel with a bottom width of 50 feet and 2H:1V side slopes. Hydrologic/hydraulic evaluations revealed that the spillway will pass the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping the dam. A spillway design flood (SDF) equal to the PMF is required for PA 485. The spillway is therefore considered to be 'adequate'. The visual inspection revealed several minor deficiencies which require remedial action by the owners of the dam.

Y. Chen and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The H.B. Norton Dam consists of an earthfill embankment approximately 37 feet high and 675 feet long. A 75-foot wide, concrete ogee spillway is located at the right abutment, and a 150-foot wide emergency spillway is located at the left abutment. Seepage control is provided by a steel core wall comprised of 72-inch by 96-inch by 1/4-inch steel sheets, which are riveted and welded in place. The downstream embankment rises at a slope of 2 horizontal to 1 vertical (2H:1V) to the crest at elevation 1422.4 feet. The upstream slopes rise at 2.5H:1V to elevation 1412 feet and then 2H:1V to the 12-foot wide crest. The upstream face is lined with well-placed sandstone riprap, typically 1- to 2-foot square. The ogee type spillway has a crest elevation of 1415 feet, or 7 feet lower than the top of dam. Approximately 225 feet to the left of the ogee spillway is a concrete screen chamber built into the embankment. The intake consists of two pipes, a 16-inch cast-iron pipe with an invert elevation of 1400 feet and a 36-inch cast-iron pipe with an invert at elevation 1386.0 feet.

Download or read book National Dam Safety Program Treated Water Pond NDI Number PA 01138 PennDER Number 63 91 Ohio River Basin Sawmill Creek Washington County Pennsylvania Phase I Inspection Report written by ACKENHEIL AND ASSOCIATES INC PITTSBURGH PA. and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general condition of the Treated Water Pond is considered to be fair. This assessment is based primarily on visual observations of embankment conditions and lack of information on the structural capacity of conduits through the embankment. The structure is classified as an 'intermediate' size, 'high' hazard dam. Corps of Engineers guidelines recommend the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) as the Spillway Design Flood for an 'intermediate' size, 'high' hazard dam. The Treated Water Pond's Spillway Design Flood is the Probable Maximum Flood. Spillway capacity is 'adequate' because the non-overtopping flood discharge was found, by using the HEC-1 computer program, to be in excess of 100 percent of the PMF. The visual inspection indicates several minor deficiencies in addition to those requiring further investigation. The deficiencies can be corrected or improved through implementation of the following recommended evaluation, remedial, monitoring and/or maintenance efforts.
