National Dam Safety Program. Lake Sonoma Dam (NJ 0193), Passaic River Basin, Branch of Burnt Meadow Brook, Passaic County, New Jersey. Phase I Inspection Report.
Abstract
Based on visual inspection, available records, calculations and past operational performance, Lake Sonoma Dam, initially listed as a high hazard potential structure but reduced to a significant hazard potential structure as a result of this inspection, is judged to be in good overall condition. The dam's spillway is considered inadequate because a flow equivalent to 95 percent of the Spillway Design Flood - SDF - would cause the dam to be overtopped. (The SDF, in this instance, is the 100 year flood.)
