National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. North Pond Dam (CT 00450), Housatonic River Basin, Goshen, Connecticut, North Pond Dikes (CT 00681), Housatonic River Basin, Norfolk, Connecticut. Phase I Inspection Program
The dam consists of an embankment at the south end of the pond and two dikes at the northeast end of the pond. The approximately 19.5 foot high dam on Hart Brook is an earth embankment approximately 325 feet in length including, at the left end of the dam, a 37 foot long rounded, broad-crested concrete spillway founded on rock. The two dikes along the northeast edge of the reservoir are referred to in this report as the North Dike and the South Dike. The dikes are about 8 feet and 15 feet high respectively, on the downstream side. The shape of the dikes is very irregular; the crest elevation is not constant, and is, on the average, four feet lower than the crest of the dam. Based upon the visual inspections, the dam appears to be in good condition while the dikes appear to be in poor condition. No evidence of instability was observed in the dam or dikes, however, the height of the dikes is inadequate; the dikes have an irregular configuration and excessively steep slopes; there is extensive tree and brush growth on the dikes and seepage through the dikes and dam. The spillway capacity to the point of overflow of the dikes is 120 cfs which is equivalent to 10% of the routed test flood outflow.
