National Dam Inspection Program. Beaver Lake Dam (NDI-ID Number PA-00160, DER-ID Number 64-180), Delaware River Basin, Wayne County Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Based on the visual inspection, past performance and the available engineering data, the dam and its appurtenant structures appear to be in good condition. In accordance with the Corps of Engineers' evaluation guidelines, the size classification of this dam is small and the hazard classification is significant. These classifications indicate that the Spillway Design Flood (SDF) should be in the range of the 100-year flood to one-half the probable maximum flood (PMF). The recommended SDF for this structure is the 100-year flood. The spillway and storage capacity is adequate for passing the SDF without overtopping the dam. Since this project can pass the SDF it is considered to be adequate.
