National Dam Inspection Program. Mountain Springs Lake Dam (NDI-ID number PA-00770), DER-ID number 45-42 Delaware River Basin, Appenzell Creek, Monroe County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Based on visual inspection, available records, calculations and past operational performance, and according to criteria established for these studies, Mountain Springs Lake Dam is judged to be unsafe, non-emergency, because the spillway capacity is rated as seriously inadequate. The existing spillway will pass only about 10 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) before overtopping of the dam occurs. It is judged that the dam could not withstand the depth and duration of overtopping that would occur for the 1/2 PMF. Failure of the dam would cause an increased hazard for loss of life downstream. As a whole, the dam is judged to be in fair condition. No stability problems were evident for the dam or appurtenant structures. The ability of the outlet works to function is unknown. There are no known upstream closure facilities. Maintenance of the dam is not adequate. Both the dam and the dike are overgrown with trees.
