National Dam Safety Program. Finch Hollow Watershed Project Site 3C (inventory Number NY 724), Susquehanna River Basin, Broome County, New York. Phase 1 Inspection Report

Abstract

This report provides information and analysis on the physical condition of the dam as of the report date. Information and analysis are based on visual inspection of the dam by the performing organization. The examination of documents and visual inspection of the Finch Hollow Site 3C Dam did not reveal conditions which constitute a hazard to human life or property. The total discharge capacity of the spillways is adequate to impound and safely discharge the floodwaters resulting from the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). To assure the continued satisfactory performance of this structure, a schedule of periodic maintenance should be established. In addition, an emergency action plan for notification of downstream residents should be developed within 6 months of the date of notification of the owner.
