National Dam Inspection Program. Kintz Creek Dam, NDI-PA-00415, PA-DER-52-159, SCS-PA-439, Delaware River Basin, Kintz Creek, Pike County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Kintz Creek Dam is a zoned earth embankment, approximately 1,180 feet in length with a maximum height of 36 feet. The top of the dam is 14 feet wide at Eelvation 1626.2. The earth embankment side slopes are 3 horizontal to 1 vertical (3H:1V) upstream and 2H:1V downstream. According to the as-built plans, the embankment has a central core with 1H:1V side slopes to Eelvation 1620 and a cutoff trench approximately 6 feet in depth with a 12 foot base width. The central core and cutoff trench are composed of Zone I material (silty material, classified as ML). The downstream shell to Elevation 1620 consists of Zone II material (sandy silt, classified as SP-SM). Zone III material (gravel, classified GM) forms the upstream shell and cap over the core material, and is also used as an 8-foot thick downstream filter between the Zone I and Zone II material to a minimum Elevation of 1608. A layer of Zone V material (spoil material and boulders in excess of 6inches) covers the downstream face to Elevation 1620. A 10-foot wide berm is provided along the upstream face from Elevation 1596.8 to 1597.8. According to the as-built plans, six relief wells are spaced at 50 feet along the downstream to. Flow from the wells enters a 4-foot wide drain trench that terminates at the Principal Spillway outlet (impact basin). The drain trench lies beneath a 15-foot wide berm with a slope of 10H:1V.
