National Dam Inspection Program. Pine Creek Dam (North Park Lake) (NDI I.D. Number PA-467, DER I.D. Number 2-26), Ohio River Basin, Pine Creek, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
The Pine Creek Dam consists of an earth embankment approximately 1130 feet long with a maximum height of about 33 feet. As built, the crest of the dam was 60 feet wide with a 2 horizontal to 1 vertical sslope on both the upstream and downstream faces. Over the years, significant fill has been placed on the downstream side of the embankment, increasing the crest width to 300 to 400 feet. A two-lane roadway crosses the crest of the dam. Near the left abutment (looking downstream) the side slope of the spillway discharge channel defines the toe of the present embankment. However, for the remaining major portion of the embankment, no discernible demarcation exists between the embankment and the natural ground that can be identified as the toe of the embankment. Fill placed on the downstream side of theembankment gradually merges to the right abutment. The flood discharge facilities for the dam consist of a combined primary and emergency spillway located near the left abutment. The spillway structures include an ogee overflow section, circular arc in plane view, which discharges into a rectangular concrete discharge channel. A single-span highway bridge crosses the spillway discharge channel, approximately 70 feet downstream from the crest of the overflow section. The crest of theogee overflow section of the spillway is located at an elevation approximately 10 feet below the low point on the crest of the dam.
