Moore and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is based on the findings of a Phase I inspection of Chancellor and Son Dam in Hardeman County. The earthfill embankment is 24 feet high and 550 feet long with a crest width of 15 feet. The service spillway is a 36 inch concrete culvert passing through the embankment near the crest. The drawdown drain is a 10 inch corrugated metal pipe with a slide gate at the inlet and a plug in the outlet. The emergency spillway is a triangular earth channel at the left end of the dam. The available data is insufficient to assess the potential affect of the seepage on the embankment. The reservoir has sufficient storage/spillway capacity to pass the PMF, but the embankment portion of the emergency spillway would probably deteriorate rapidly under high stage flows. Also, the service spillway is not properly designed to pass large flows. The spillways are therefore considered to be seriously inadequate. Because of these findings, Chancellor and Son Dam is considered to have a condition classification of 'unsafe nonemergency'.

Bush and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grand Valley Dam No. 1 is located in Hardeman County, Tennessee several miles east of Hickory Valley, Tennessee and is an earth fill embankment 37 feet high and 1800 feet long. The crest width is 26 feet. Facilities for discharge from the reservoir are located near the south abutment and consist of a concrete service spillway 11 feet by 8 feet with two 9.0 foot by 0.83 feet openings and a 42 inch CM pipe barrel through the dam and an emergency spillway constructed as a low area in the top of the dam. The emergency spillway has gentle side slopes and a 50 foot wide bottom section. The entrance and exit slopes are 1V on 3H on the upstream slope and 1V on 4H on the downstream slope. No protection is provided for the exit slope. The upstream slope is vertical from the waterline for approximately two feet. The slope from that point to the crest is one vertical on three horizontal. The downstream slope is generally one vertical on four horizontal. Both the upstream and downstream slopes have ineffective vegetation. The dam is in the intermediate size category and has a downstream hazard potential classification of high by the USCE and 'I' by the State of Tennessee. On the basis of hydraulic analysis, the dam has flood storage (572 acre-feet) and spillways inadequate to safely pass the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF).

Moore and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is based on the findings of a Phase I inspection of Candlewood Lake Dam. The zoned earthfill embankment is 43.6 feet high and 800 feet long with a crest width of 24 feet. The dam is in the intermediate size and high hazard potential category. The reservoir has sufficient storage/spillway capacity to safely pass the full PMF. Erosion is evident in the emergency spillway channel, on the embankment abutment contacts, and on the downstream slope. Some indications of dispersive soils were noted on the downstream slope. Also, the downstream slope appeared to be excessively moist and some standing water was seen. Due to these findings, Candlewood Lake Dam is considered to be 'significantly deficient'.

Bush and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grand Valley Dam No. 2 is located in Hardeman County, Tennessee seven miles east of Hickory Valley, Tennessee and is an earth fill embankment 16 feet high and 560 feet long with a crest width of 22 feet. Facilities for discharge for the reservoir are located in the left abutment and include a 24 inch corrugated metal pipe culvert through the dam, and an emergency spillway cut into the right abutment. This spillway is trapezoidal shaped with a bottom width of 50 feet. A paved road fill crosses the spillway at approximately the location of the control section and effectively cuts off the spillway from use. The embankment slopes are 1 vertical on 3 horizontal from the water line to the top of the dam on the upstream slope. The downstream slope averages 1 vertical on 3 horizontal. The upstream slope is free of undesirable growth and debris but the downstream slope is covered with high grass and small saplings. On the basis of hydraulic analysis, flood storage (95 acre-feet) and spillways are insufficient to safely pass the 1/2 Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) which the Office of the Chief of Engineers (OCE) Guidelines specify to be the design flood for a dam in the small size and high hazard categories. The dam is in the small size category and has a downstream hazard potential classification of high by the USCE and '1' by the State of Tennessee.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woodrun Dams No. 1 (west dam) and No. 2 (east dam) are colinear earthen structures 885 feet and 945 feet long respectively. The impoundments of each structure are interconnected by a channel forming a single 43 acre lake. Dam No. 1 is 27.5 feet in height with a crest width of 15 feet. Its upstream and downstream slopes are 1V:2.5H and 1V:2.8H respectively. Dam No. 2 is 33.2 feet in height with a crest width of 10 feet. Its upstream and downstream slopes are 1V:2.7H and 1V:3.6H respectively. Both dams are uniform in cross section and host no deleterious vegetation. The reservoir has a drainage area of 249 acres. It is predominately wood-land with an average ground slope of approximately 14%. The downstream slope of Dam No. 1 is wet with seepage beginning approximately 20 feet below the crest extending to the toe and becoming attenuated toward the ends of the dam. The seepage area is accompanied by moderate erosion near the maximum section. A property owner has dug a narrow ditch along part of the toe to channel seepage from his land. Pooled seepage exists along much of the channel and a clear flow of approximately 1/2 gpm was observed emanating from its upstream side. Seepage also exists on the downstream slope of Dam No. 2. It extends over a large area beginning approximately 200 feet right of the principal spillway, emerging from the slope 10-15 feet below the dam crest. The dam is not as wet and eroded as Dam No. 1, indicating that seepage is not as profuse. The principal spillway consists of a 30 in. steel pipe riser and a 30 in. outlet culvert of similar construction.

Bush and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nolan Dam has an 8.44 acre lake and is located in Shelby County, Tennessee, south of Winchester Road and east of Ross Road, and is an earth fill embankment 14.7 feet high and 640 feet long. The crest varies from 9 feet to 12 feet in width. Facilities for discharge from the reservoir are located in the east abutment and include an inlet section with a bottom width of eight feet and vertical broken concrete masonary walls two feet high. The emergency spillway is crossed by a farm road approximately 50 feet from the entrance and the fill contains four 18 inch corrugated metal pipes protected by a concrete headwall on both sides of the road. A four inch cast iron draw down pipe with a gate valve at the discharge end is located at approximately the center of the dam. The embankment slopes are approximately 1V on 3H on 2.3H to the top of the dam on the upstream slope. Neither slope has undesirable vegetation. A broken concrete masonry wall provides the vertical section of the upstream slope. Nolan Dam is in the small size category and has a downstream hazard potential classification of high by the Corps of Engineers and I by the State of Tennessee.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The crest undergoes little change in elevation and has a fairly constant width but ruts from vehicular traffic are predominant along much of the surface. The downstream slope of the dam is traversed by cattle trails nearly paralleling one another at different elevations from the toe to the dam crest. Some vehicular traffic has apparently also been occurring on the slope in the area of the principal spillway outlet. The upstream slope of the dam has been sloughed off below elevation 352 along most of the length of the dam. The embankment is reasonably well grassed and free of undesirable vegetation. There are some wet areas along the downstream toe but they are apparently pooled surface runoff and not the result of seepage. Because the reservoir was empty during the inspection, any active seepage flow that may normally occur did not appear, but no indications of a previous seepage flow were observed on the slope. The principal spillway consists of a reinforced concrete riser feeding a 156 foot, 30 inch diameter reinforced concrete culvert. The emergency spillway is an uncontrolled saddle type trapezoidal earthen channel at the left end of the dam. It has an 80 foot base, 1V:4.6H side slopes, and 2.1 feet of available head. OCE guidelines recommend that high hazard dams of intermediate size pass the full Probable Maximum Flood. Hydraulic and hydrologic analysis reveal that the dam will be overtopped by a maximum of 2.4 feet for 7.2 hours (AMC II) under the influence of this storm. The dam is given a condition classification of 'unsafe nonemergency' because of its seriously inadequate spillway.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The earth dam is 15 ft. high, 675 ft. long, and has a crest width of 13 feet. It is in the small size and high hazard potential category. The dam impounds a 5.5 acre lake used for recreation and water supply. The embankment slopes are moderate and have a well established grass cover. Vehicles have cut deep ruts into the crest. The principal spillway is a 36 inch diameter CMP riser with a 30 inch diameter CMP outlet. A slide headgate is located at the base of the riser to regulate the lake level. The emergency spillway is a irregular shaped earth channel at the left abutment. The channel is relatively flat and in good condition. The dam is classified as 'significantly deficient' because the spillway will not safely pass the recommended one-half Probable Maximum Flood.

Bluhm and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lambert Dam is a linear earthfill structure 605 feet long and 53 feet high with a crest width of 18 feet. The upstream and downstream slopes are IV on 3.8H and IV on 3.4H respectively. It has a capacity of 336 acre-feet at normal pool and 454 acre-feet at the top of the dam. The dam is in the intermediate size and high potential category and should pass the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). A hydraulic and hydrologic analysis reveals that during the PMF the dam will overtop by 1.3 feet for 4.75 hours. During the 1/2 PMF, the dam overtops by .65 feet for three hours. The embankment appears to be structurally stable; however, it is considered significantly deficient because the spillway is inadequate. It is recommended that a qualified engineer be engaged to develop project modifications that will allow the dam to pass the PMF and that the owner perform routine maintenance operations.

Bush and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cumberland Springs Dam has an 8.3 acre lake and is located near the head of Hurricane Creek in Moore County, Tennessee. The concrete gravity structure has a maximum constructed height of 33 feet and a length of 192 feet, including a 36 foot long ogee spillway. The spillway section also includes a drawdown pipe that is gated on the upstream face. The concrete dam is reinforced with six buttresses on the downstream face. The exposed surfaces of the buttresses are badly weathered with horizontal cracks 6 inches deep on the vertical faces. A horizontal crack was observed on the downstream face of the dam approximately 10 feet above the foundation sill. This crack appears to be in a construction 'cold' joint. Seeps were found in the east end wall and along the foundation sill between buttresses 1 and 2 and 2 and 3. Numerous springs were flowing immediately below the dam and both abutments. Cumberland Springs Dam is in the small size category and has a downstream hazard potential classification of high by the Corps of Engineers and 'I' by the State of Tennessee. On the basis of hydraulic analysis. Cumberland Springs Dam flood storage (15.8 acre-feet) and emergency spillway are inadequate to safely pass the 1/2 Probable Maximum Flood (PMF), which Office of the Chief of Engineers (O.C.E.) Guidelines specify to be the design flood for a dam in the small size and high hazard potential categories. At this time, the dam is considered 'unsafe-nonemergency'.
