National Dam Inspection Report. Kaercher Creek Dam (PA-00722), Schuylkill River Basin, Kaercher Creek, Berks County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Kaercher Creek Dam is owned by Berks County and was designed by the Soil Conservation Service in 1965. The dam is located on Kaercher Creek in Windsor Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania, approximately 3/4 mile east norteast of Hamburg, Pennsylvania. The facility is considered to be in good condition and well maintained. The dam is considered a 'High' hazard potential structure consistent with its potential for extensive property damage and loss of life along Kaercher Creek and in the town of Hamburg, Pennsylvania. The design data was comprehensive and included hydrology and hydraulic calculations together with structural calculations and geologic data. Kaercher Creek Dam was designed to pass probable maximum flood (PMF) without overtopping. Therefore, the spillway is considered 'Adequate'.
