Colonial Country Club-16th Hole Dam has a 4.5 acre lake |
|
and is located in Shelby County, Tennessee in the |
|
Countrywood subdivision, and is an earth fill embankment |
|
25 feet high and 344 feet long. The crest varies from 10 |
|
feet to 15 feet in width. Facilities for discharge from |
|
the reservoir are located in the west abutment and |
|
include a timber covered concrete structure with a 5.3 |
|
foot by 0.77 foot opening that is located in the |
|
emergency spillway ten feet landward from the control |
|
section of the emergency spillway. The emergency spillway |
|
has a cross-tie weir nine feet long. Excess water not |
|
intercepted by the service spillway is carried in a swale |
|
located between the toe of the dam and the foundations of |
|
two houses. The embankment slopes are one vertical on |
|
three horizontal. The upstream slope is partially |
|
protected by light riprap. Both the upstream and |
|
downstream slopes have undesirable vegetation. The dam is |
|
in the small size category and has a downstream hazard |
|
potential classification of high by the Corps of |
|
Engineers and I by the State of Tennessee. On the basis |
|
of hydraulic analysis, the dam flood storage (15.7 acre- |
|
feet) and spillways are adequate to safely pass the 1/2 |
|
Probable Maximum Flood (PMF), which Office of the Chief |
|
of Engineers (OCE) Guidelines specify to be the design |
|
flood for a dam in the small size and high hazard |
|
categories. (Author) |
