National Dam Inspection Program. Rexmont Number 2 Dam (NDI Number PA-00594, DER Number 38-2), Susquehanna River Basin, Lebanon County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Rexmont No. 2 Dam, formerly known as Lebanon No. 2 Dam, is owned by the City of Lebanon and was originally constructed as a water supply reservoir for the City. At present, the reservoir is used for recreation (fishing) and is only a standby water supply for the City. The Rexmont No. 1 Dam, also owned by the City of Lebanon, is located about 1,000 feet further downstream. A state highway is located by between the two dams. The dam is a homogeneous earthfill structure with a maximum fill height of 42 feet and an embankment length of 690 feet. A 14.5 foot wide spillway (field measured) is located in the left abutment and has a weir elevation 4 feet below the top of the dam embankment. An intake control tower, located at the upstream toe of the dam, has three intake sluice gates and is connected to a downstream valve house by a 16-inch and a 20-inch pipe. The flow in these pipes is controlled by valves in the valve house. The embankment had slope failures in 1910, 1912, 1925. The downstream slope was stabilized in 1933 by adding fill and a berm.
