National Dam Inspection Program. Whitney Ridge Dam (NDI Number PA 00474, PennDER Number 65-24), Ohio River Basin, Westmoreland County, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Based on a review of available design information and visual observations of conditions as they existed on the date of the field inspection, the general condition of the Whitney Ridge Dam is considered to be poor. This assessment is based on visual observations and hydraulic calculations that indicated: (1) A possible inadequate margin of safety against slope failure as indicated by evidence of high ground water in the embankment. (2) Inability to locate outlet works system components or operate observed controls. (3) Poor hydraulic conditions at the Principal Spillway including dense tree and brush growth in the spillway channel and deterioration of the concrete overflow weir and channel bottom paving. (4) 'Inadequate' spillway capacity as determined using the HEC-1 Computer Program. The structure is a 'small' size, 'high' hazard dam.
