National Dam Safety Program. Lake Serene Dam (MO 30542), Mississippi - Kaskaskia - St. Louis Basin, Franklin County, Missouri. Phase I Inspection Report
Lake Serene Dam is an earthfill structure approximately 37 ft high and 1200 ft long at the crest. The appurtenant works consist of a rock cut spillway with a concrete weir control structure located at the south abutment, and a 12-in. diameter siphon pipe located near the north end of the dam. Our inspection and evaluation indicates that the spillway does not meet the criteria set forth in the guidelines for a dam having the above size and hazard potential. The spillway will pass 27 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood without overtopping. Deficiencies visually observed by the inspection team were: (1) erosion at the contacts of the dam with the north and south abutments; (2) tree and brush growth on downstream face of dam; (3) animal burrows on face of dam; (4) concrete debris on dam face near spillway; and (5) debris in spillway outlet channel.
