National Dam Inspection Program. PA-482 Dam (NDI I.D. Number PA-469, DER I.D. Number 63-72), Ohio River Basin, Tributary of Harmon Creek, Washington County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
The PA-482 dam is one of the 14 flood control projects in the Harmon Creek watershed. The dam consists of an earth embankment approximately 460 feet long with a maximum height of 38 feet from the downstream toe and a crest width of 14 feet. The flood discharge facilities for the dam consist of a drop inlet primary spillway located at the center of the embankment and an emergency spillway on the left abutment (looking downstream). The primary spillway structures consist of a two-stage reinforced concrete riser, a 24-inch-diameter reinforced concrete conduit, and a reinforced concrete impact basin at the downstream end of the outlet pipe. The emergency spillway is a 200-foot-wide trapezoidal earth channel excavated into the left abutment. The reservoir outlet for the dam consists of a 15-inch steel pipe extending from the upstream toe of the dam to the drop inlet structure. Flow through the reservoir outlet is controlled by a manually operated sluice gate lcoated in the drop inlet structure.
