National Dam Safety Program. Norwich Water Works Dam Number 1 (Inventory Number NY 347), Susquehanna River Basin, Chenango County, New York. Phase I Inspection Report
This report provides information and analysis on the physical condition of the dam as of the report date. Information and analysis are based on visual inspection of the dam by the performing organization. Examination of available documents and a visual inspection of the dam did not reveal conditions which constitute an immediate hazard to human life or property. However, the dam has some deficiencies that need to be evaluated and remedied. Using the Corps of Engineers' screening criteria for the initial review of spillway adequacy, it has been determined that the embankment would be overtopped by the outflow resulting from all storms exceeding 17 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) when the flashboards are in place and the overtopping discharge from the embankment portion of Norwich Reservoir No. 2 Dam (NY 349) is included as an inflow hydrograph. Dam overtopping, the resulting erosion of the embankment and hence, dam breaching would cause water surface levels downstream to reach depths which would pose significant danger to residents. Therefore, the spillway is adjudged to be seriously inadequate and the dam is assessed as unsafe, nonemergency.
