National Dam Safety Program. Lake Moraine Dam (Inventory Number NY 354). Chenago River Basin, Madison County, New York. Phase I Inspection Report,
Abstract
The examination of documents and visual inspection of the dam and appurtenant structures did not reveal conditions which constitute an immediate hazard to human life or property. The dam, however, has a number of problem areas, which if not remedied, have the potential for developing into hazardous conditions. The visual inspection revealed water flowing in a ditch at the toe of the easterly abutment and wet areas on the downstream face of the easterly dam section. THESE AREAS should be monitored to determine the quantity of the flow and the extent of the wet areas. Periodic measurements should be taken to determine if these areas increase in size or flow. Test borings should be taken to determine the source of this flow. Remedial measures, as indicated as a result of this investigation, should be taken to prevent further damage to the dam.
