Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The visual inspection and review of available design and construction information indicate that Lake Quinn Dam is in fair condition. Deficiencies noted during the inspection included the lack of functional drawdown facilities and minor seepage through the masonry near the right abutment. Based on the size and hazard classification of the dam, the recommended Spillway Design Flood (SDF) varies between 1/2 the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) and the PMF. The 1/2 PMF has been selected as the SDF due to the size of the dam and reservoir, and the downstream conditions. The hydrologic and hydraulic computations indicate that the combination of reservoir storage and spillway discharge capacity will pass only 3 percent of the PMF without overtopping the dam. Overtopping the dam could cause failure, which would lead to a significant increase in downstream loss of life and property damage. Therefore, the spillway for Lake Quinn Dam is considered to be seriously inadequate, and the dam is judged to be unsafe, non-emergency.
