National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. Snow Pond Dam (MA 00079), Connecticut River Basin, Ware, Massachusetts. Phase I Inspection report
Snow Pond dam is approximately 200 ft. long overall, and consists of a small earth embankment approximately 6 ft. high, an ungated concrete ogee spillway, a section of earth fill retained by concrete and stone masonry walls and a 6-ft. diameter outlet pipe. The dam is in fair condition. There are no obvious signs of failure or conditions which would warrant urgent remedial treatment. Hydraulic analyses indicate that the spillway cannot pass either one-half the probable maximum flood or the 100-year flood and the spillway is considered inadequate. Recommendations for remedial work include earthwork to restore embankment grades, structural repair of the control gate to the outlet conduit and reconstruction of certain retaining walls. Work should be designed and constructed as soon as practical under the supervision of a registered professional engineer.
