National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. Talcott Reservoir Dam, Main Dam (CT 00490), Diversion Dike (CT 00489), Dike No. 2 (CT 01710), Connecticut River Basin, West Hartford, Connecticut. Phase I Inspection Report
This flood control project consists of three structures: the Main Dam, the Diversion Dike and Dike No. 2. Each structure is an earth embankment at 3H:1V with a good grass cover and a top width of 12 feet. The principal spillways consist of a reinforced concrete riser and 30 inch RCP through the Main Dam and Diversion Dike. The emergency spillways are grassed channels, 40 feet wide in the eastern 1/3 of the Main Dam and 90 feet wide at the eastern end of the Diversion Dike. The reservoir is normally empty except for small sediment pools at the principal spillway inlets. Based on the visual inspection, review of design information and past operational performance, these structures are judged to be in good condition. There is some erosion due to vehicle treepass, some sloughing of the embankments, and animal burrows. These structures are classified as intermediate in size and high hazard potential structures in accordance with the Recommended Guidelines for Safety Inspection of Dams, by the Corps of Engineers. The impoundment storage at the top of the structures is 1205 ac.-ft. The maximum outflow capacity of the spillways with the water level at the top of the dam is 5400 cfs, which is 203 percent of the test flood outflow.
