National Dam Safety Program. Lake Carmel Dam (Inventory Number N.Y. 100), Lower Hudson River Basin, Putnam County, New York. Phase I Inspection Report
This report provides information and analysis on the physical condition of the dam as the report date. Information and analysis are based on visual inspection of the dam by the performing organization. The examination of documents and the visual inspection findings of the dam and its appurtenant structures did not reveal conditions which constitute an immediate hazard to human life and property. However, the dam has some deficiencies which require further investigations and remedial action. Using the Corps of Engineers' screening criteria for initial review of the adequacy of the service spillway, it has been determined that the structure is inadequate for all floods in excess of 17.5 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). Overtopping of the dam could cause breaching the embankment section of the dam: this would significantly increase the hazard of loss of life and property. The spillway section is therefore judged to be 'seriously inadequate' and the dam is assessed as unsafe, non-emergency. Based on an initial screening and the service spillway capacity, such that if a severe storm were to occur, overtopping would significantly increase the hazard to life downstream of the dam.
