The dam is constructed of rock and earth filled timber cribbing and is equipped with 6.2 ft. of nonfailing flashboards. It is about 275 ft. long and 15 ft. high. It is small in size with a high hazard potential. One half of the PMF has been adopted as the appropriate test flood. The dam is in fair condition at the present time. There are various remedial measures which require attention.

The dam is a concrete gravity overflow structure constructed between three depressions in a ledge outcropping that forms the bottom of the Ammonoosuc River channel at this location. The dam is considered to be in poor condition. There are various major concerns which should be corrected to assure the continued performance of the dam. It is small in size with a significant hazard potential. (Author).

Upper Reservoir Dam is a earthen structure with an overall length of 1340 ft. The dam has a height of 30 ft. as measured from the streambed to the crest of the dam. The top width is 9 ft. The upstream face is on a 2.25 horizontal to 1 vertical slope and the downstream slope is 2 horizontal to 1 vertical. The spillway consists of a 25 ft. long crest, concrete weir with training walls, which outlets to a 10 ft. wide stone wall channel. The dam is considered to be in good condition. It is small in size with a significant hazard potential. Keywords include: Visual inspection, Dam safety.

Based on the visual inspection, available records and past performance, the dam is considered to be in fair condition. Based on size and hazard classifications in accordance with Corps guidelines, the test flood is the PMF. In addition to long term recommendations, there are several remedial measures which should be implemented immediately.

The dam is a run-of-the-river dam consisting of a rock filled timber crib overflow section capped with a 10 inch thick concrete slab. It is 150 ft. long with a maximum height of 17 ft. The maximum storage capacity at top of dam is 112 acre ft. The dam is considered to be in poor condition. The dam is small in size with a significant hazard potential. (Author).

The dam is constructed of reinforced concrete and earth fill. It is about 225 ft. long and 16.6 ft. high. The dam is small in size with a high hazard potential. The dam is in poor condition at the present time. The spillway is capable of passing 5% of the Test Flood routed peak outflow. (Author).

The dam is an 80 ft. long, 12 ft. high dam consisting of stone, earth and concrete. The visual inspection did not disclose any findings that indicate an immediate unsafe condition. The general condition of the dam is good. The dam's spillway will not pass the required test flood. The wet area found at the toe downstream should be examined when there is no flow through the spillway to determine if it is resulting from seepage through the dam or from water through the rock slope from the spillway.
