National Dam Safety Program. Treated Water Pond (NDI Number PA 01138, PennDER Number 63-91), Ohio River Basin, Sawmill Creek, Washington County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
The general condition of the Treated Water Pond is considered to be fair. This assessment is based primarily on visual observations of embankment conditions and lack of information on the structural capacity of conduits through the embankment. The structure is classified as an 'intermediate' size, 'high' hazard dam. Corps of Engineers guidelines recommend the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) as the Spillway Design Flood for an 'intermediate' size, 'high' hazard dam. The Treated Water Pond's Spillway Design Flood is the Probable Maximum Flood. Spillway capacity is 'adequate' because the non-overtopping flood discharge was found, by using the HEC-1 computer program, to be in excess of 100 percent of the PMF. The visual inspection indicates several minor deficiencies in addition to those requiring further investigation. The deficiencies can be corrected or improved through implementation of the following recommended evaluation, remedial, monitoring and/or maintenance efforts.
