National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. South Pond Dam (CT 00592), Housatonic River Basin, Salisbury, Connecticut. Phase I Inspection Report
South Pond Dam is an earthen embankment dam with a vertical stone masonry wall downstream face. The embankment is approximately 300 feet long and has a maximum height of 19 feet. The dam has two spillways. The visual inspection of South Pond Dam indicated that the dam is in fair condition. The inspection revealed that lack of adequate riprap of the upstream face has caused erosion at the splash zone of the embankment. Tree stumps exist in the downstream slope of the embankment along the right training wall and buttress wall of the center spillway. Bulges up to 3 feet offset were located in 3 areas of the vertical stone wall on the downstream face of the dam. Water with staining was observed along the downstream toe along the right side of the embankment. Erosion was found adjacent to the emergency spillway on the left abutment. Brush, trees and debris are located in the downstream channel of the left spillway. Animal burrows were found in the embankment. The spillway will pass 590 cfs or 16% of the test flood with the pool level at the top of the dam. The test flood flow of 3900 cfs will overtop the dam by 2.1 feet.
