National Dam Inspection Program. Hutchinson Reservoir Dam Number 2 (NDI-PA-215), Ohio River Basin, Redstone Creek, Fayette County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report.

Abstract

Hutchinson Reservoir Dam Number 2 is an earth embankment approximately 560 feet in length with a maximum height of 47 feet. According to available information, the structure was constructed with a concrete core wall that extends across its length from just beneath the crest to a depth 13 feet below the original ground surface. Both the upstream and downstream slopes are covered with hand-placed sandstone riprap. The downstream slope is interrupted by two berms, the lower of which is used as a private road that provides access to the caretaker's residence, as well as to Hutchinson Reservoir Dam Number 1.
