National Dam Safety Program. Brainerd Lake Dam (NJ00152), Raritan River Basin, Cranbury Brook, Middlesex County, New Jersey. Phase I Inspection Report.
Abstract
This dam was inspected on 12 November 1979 by Storch Engineers under contract to the State of New Jersey. The State, under agreement with the U.S. Army Engineer District, Philadelphia, had this inspection performed in accordance with the National Dam Inspection Act, Public Law 92-367. Brainerd Lake 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 fair overall condition. The dam's spillway is considered inadequate because a flow equivalent to 17 percent of the 100-year flood would cause the dam to be overtopped.
