National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. Stony Brook Reservoir Dam (CT 00243), Thames River Basin, Montville, Connecticut. Phase I Inspection Report
Stony Brook Reservoir Dam consists of two earthfill embankments with concrete core walls, separated by a 650 ft. long natural promontory. A concrete spillway, 35 ft. wide, is located in the Side Dam. The spillway discharges into a stone masonry channel about 220 ft. long. A gate house located upstream from the Main Dam houses controls for the inlet to a 24 in. dia. water supply line and a 24 in. dia. low level outlet. The dam and appurtenant works are judged to be in generally fair condition. Brush was growing on the downstream slopes of both dams and in the spillway discharge channel. The gate house is in need of repair and the condition of the outlet gate could not be verified. Seeps were found downstream of both dams and cavities were found in the slopes of both embankments. The routed test flood outflow of 5,200 cfs overtops the crest of the Main Dam by 1.3 ft. and the Side Dam by 0.6 ft. The spillway can pass 1,250 cfs or about 24 percent of the routed test flood outflow without overtopping the Main Dam.
