National Dam Safety Program. Pine Lake Dam (MO 30447), Mississippi - Kaskaskia - St. Louis Basin, Jefferson County, Missouri. Phase I Inspection Report
Certain deficiencies were noticed during the visual inspection and are considered to have an adverse effect on the overall safety and future operation of the dam and spillway. The upstream slope of the dam is irregular (maximum slope ratio is approximately 1v on 1.3h) beginning at a level about 12 feet below the top of the dam. Excessive irregularities of the face of the dam are indications of instability and/or erosion, both of which are considered detrimental to the safety of the dam. A substantial cover of small trees and brush that may conceal animal burrows exists on the upstream and downstream slopes of the dam. The tree roots and animal burrows can provide a pathway for lake seepage that may develop into a piping condition. The upstream slope has a grass cover to protect it from erosion by wave action. Grass cover is not considered adequate to prevent erosion by wave action for a fluctuating lake level. Loss of material can result in instability and settlement of the dam crest. A dense growth of brush and small trees obstructs the spillway crest and outlet channel.
