National Dam Inspection Program. Findley Run Dam. (NDI I.D. Number PA-00286, PennDER I.D. Number 32-43) Ohio River Basin, Findley Run, Indiana County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Based on a visual inspection, operational history, and available engineering data, the dam is considered to be in good condition. The size classification of the facility is small and its hazard classification is considered to be high. In accordance with the recommended guidelines, the Spillway Design Flood (SDF) for the facility ranges between the 1/2-PMF (Probable Maximum Flood) and the PMF. Due to the relatively small storage capacity and the unusually stable embankment configuration the SDF for the facility is considered to be the 1/2-PMF. Results of the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis indicate the facility is capable of passing and/or storing a flood of 1/2-PMF magnitude. Consequently, the spillway is considered adequate. It is recommended that the owner: (a) Develop a formal emergency warning system to notify downstream residents should hazardous conditions develop. Included in the plan should be provisions for around-the-clock surveillance of the facility during periods of unusually heavy precipitation. (b) Observe the cracking in the spillway overflow wall and outlet conduit headwall in future inspections and take remedial measures if necessary. (c) Develop formal manuals of operation and maintenance to ensure the continued proper care of the facility.
