National Dam Inspection Report. Lower Woods Pond Dam (PA-00152, DER I. D. 64-11) Delaware River Basin, E. Branch Dyberry Creek, Wayne County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Lower Woods Pond Dam is a series of three dams owned by the Pennsylvania Fish Commission which were rebuilt in 1956 by the Fish Commission. The facility is considered to be in good condition and well maintained. Collectively, the dams are clasified as a 'High' hazard potential structure consistent with its potential to cause extensive property damage and possible loss of life in the event of failure. The dams are also clasified as an 'Intermediate' size structure based on their 1,470 acre-feet storage capacity. The design data and supplemental information pertinent to this structure were sufficient to evaluate it and the appurtenant structures in accordance with Phase I Guidelines. The hydrologic and hydraulic calculations indicate that the structure will pass 60 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood. Since the dams will be overtopped by one foot during the Probable Maximum Flood, the spillway systems are considered to be 'Inadequate' but not 'Seriously Inadequate'.
