Camp Delmont Dam is a concrete capped rockfilled timber
crib structure with steel and timber sheetpile abutments
about 190 feet long, with a maximum height of 19 feet.
The dam has a maximum storage capacity of 236 acre feet
and a maximum height of 19 feet which places it in the
'Small' size category. Because of the chance for
appreciable damage to several cottages located downstream
of the site and little chance for loss of life due to
failure of the dam, the dam is judged to be a
'Significant' hazard structure. Due to the inhabitable
dwellings located downstream of the dam, fifty percent of
the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) was selected as the
appropriate Spillway Design Flood (SDF). An examination
of the results of the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses
indicates that the spillway and adjacent roadway are
capable of passing 36% of the PMF without overtopping the
dam abutments. The selected SDF for the dam is fifty
percent of the PMF. Since the spillway is not capable of
passing the SDF, the spillway is classified as
'Inadequate'. Further examination of the hydrologic and
hydraulic analyses indicates that the spillway and
adjacent roadway are capable of passing the 100 year
event without overtopping the dam abutments. Based on
visual observations and a review of the information
obtained from Pennsylvania Department of Environmental
Resources, Camp Delmont Dam appears to be in good
condition.
