National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams, Ashfield Pond Dam (MA 00523), Connecticut River Basin, Ashfield, Massachusetts. Phase 1 Inspection Report
Ashfield Pond Dam is an earth embankment about 775 feet long with a maximum height of about 15 feet. A 30 foot long, 14.5 foot high stone masonry and concrete stepped spillway is located about 110 feet from the east abutment. A rectangular concrete low level outlet, 4 feet wide and 1.7 feet high is located at the east end of the spillway. Phase I inspection and evaluation of Ashfield Pond Dam does not indicate conditions which would constitute an immediate hazard to human life or property. Based on enginnering judgment and the performance of the earth embankment and the outlet works, the project is considered to be in fair condition. The project has a number of deficiencies which, if not remedied, have the potential for developing into hazardous conditions. Selection of 1/2 PMF as the test flood, yields an outflow of 1698 cfs (assuming the low level outlet is closed), which is greater than the maximum spillway discharge capacity of 965 cfs and would result in an overtopping of the dam by about 0.43 feet.
