National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. Wrights Reservoir Dam (MA 00117), Connecticut River Basin, Gardner, Massachusetts. Phase I Inspection Report
Wright's Reservoir Dam is approximately 1,000 ft long. It consists of a small earth embankment approximately 14 ft high and an ungated concrete ogee spillway and stilling basin. An 800 ft long dike is present at this facility on the west side of the reservoir. Its maximum height is 12 ft. This facility was constructed in 1964 under the direction of the Corps of Engineers. The dam is generally in good to excellent condition. There are no obvious signs of failure or conditions which would warrant urgent maintenance treatment. Hydraulic analysis indicated that the spillway will pass the spillway test flood without overtopping the dam. The spillway test flood selected for this structure was the probable maximum flood. Recommendations for maintenance work include the clearing of brush and mowing of grass, especially at the west dike and the replacement of the operating handle for the reservoir drain at the outlet works. This work should be performed as part of the regular maintenance of the dam.
