Fuller's Lake Dam is an earthfill embankment constructed atop an existing masonry earthfill dam. Fuller's Lake Dam is located on Salt Lick Creek, in Jackson Township, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania. The dam and its appurtenant structures were found to be in poor overall condition at the time of inspection. No unusual weather conditions were experienced on the date of inspection, 27 October 1980. Clear seepage was observed exiting the downstream slope at a rate of approximately 7.5 g.p.m. The vegetation and the erosion channel away from the seep indicated that the seepage has been occurring for a long period of time. The spillway approach channel is blocked by a beaver dam approximately 1.5 feet high. The spillway discharge channel is clogged with a heavy growth of brush.

Page's Lake Dam is owned and operated by the Lakeside Outing Club and is classified as a 'Significant' hazard - 'Intermediate' size dam. The dam was found to be in good overall condition on 27 October 1980. Hydraulic/hydrologic evaluations, performed in accordance with procedures established by the Baltimore District, Corps of Engineers, for Phase I Inspection Reports, revealed that the spillway will not pass the 1/2 Probable Maximum Flood (1/2 PMF) without overtopping the dam. A spillway design flood (SDF) in the range of the 1/2 PMF to the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) is required for Page's Lake Dam. The 1/2 PMF was chosen as the SDF because the dam is on the low end of the 'Intermediate' size category in terms of storage. During the 1/2 PMF, the dam is overtopped by a maximum depth of 3.34 feet for a total duration of 11.83 hours. The spillway is therefore considered 'Inadequate.' It is recommended that the owner immediately initiate an engineering study to further evaluate the spillway capacity and develop recommendations for remedial measures to reduce the overtopping potential of the dam.

Loomis Lake Dam is located on an unnamed tributary to Hop Bottom Creek in Bridgewater Township, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, approximately 3.4 miles east of Montrose. The reservoir slopes are moderate with a good growth of ground cover. A small amount of sedimentation was present in the upper portion of the reservoir. One home and one garage are located downstream of the dam. Loss of life may occur in the event of a dam failure. In addition, the township road may suffer economic damage.

Based on the visual inspection, past performance and the available engineering data, the dam and its appurtenant structures appear to be in fair condition. In accordance with the Corps of Engineers' evaluation guidelines, the size classification of this dam is small and the hazard classification is high. These classifications indicate that the Spillway Design Flood (SDF) should be in the range of one-half the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) to the full PMF. The recommended SDF for this structure is one-half the PMF. The spillway capacity is adequate for passing only 10 percent of the PMF peak inflow without overtopping the dam. The spillway is considered to be seriously inadequate. The dam is therefore unsafe, non-emergency.

DuBois Creek Dam is located on DuBois Creek, approximately 2.1 miles southwest of Hartford, Pennsylvania. The inspection was performed on 28 October 1980. A light rain was falling at the time of inspection. The dam and appurtenant structures were found to be in poor overall condition at the time of inspection. Seepage was observed at three locations passing through deteriorated portions of the concrete core wall. These seepage areas are the result of progressive deterioration of the exposed areas of the concrete core wall. The seepage has caused erosion gullies and slight irregularities on the downstream face of the dam.
