This dam is located in the northwestern part of the City of Cohoes. It is immediately north of Vliet Boulevard. This dam is used as a water supply reservoir for the City of Cohoes. This reservoir is used for storage of untreated water before it goes through the treatment plant. Visual observations revealed several deficiencies on this structure. The following items were noted: Serious erosion on the inboard slope especially on the southeastern corner of the impoundment; Irregularities in the crest caused by the erosion on the inboard slope and burrow holes under the fence on the outboard slope; A drainage ditch running along the toe of the northern embankment which eventually bends in and flows into a hole about 10 feet from the toe of the embankment; Wet areas beyond the toe on the northern and eastern outboard slopes; Trees and brush growing on all sides of the embankment; Two areas on the western outboard slope where there had been small excavations into the embankment, and Leakage through the 30 inch supply line when valve is completely closed.
