National Dam Inspection Program. Bull Run Dam (NDI PA-463), Ohio River Basin, Bull Run, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Program.

Abstract

Based on a visual inspection and review of available engineering data, Bull Run dam and its appurtenances are considered to be in good structural condition. The spillway is capable of discharging the flow resulting from a storm of PMF intensity and is, thus, considered adequate. Required maintenance is poor, however, and it is recommended that the owner develop a program that will implement the procedures and operations provided for in the 'Operation and Maintenance Manual.'
