National Dam Inspection Program. Carbaugh Run Dam, NDI Number PA-00881, DER Number 1-007. South Moutain Restoration Center. Potomac River Basin. Adams County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report.

Abstract

Carbaugh Run Dam is located in Franklin Township, Adams County U.S.G.S. Quadrangle - Iron Springs, PA. The general appearance of Carbaugh Run Dam is good. The embankment slopes have dumped rock slope protection. A small amount of brush is growing on the slopes. Most of the immediate area at the downstream toe is wet and soggy. Standing water was noticed at many places. The footbridge has moved slightly on its abutment. This indicates either movement of the abutment, which is founded in the fill, or movement in the intake structure. There were no signs of structural distress. The main concern is leakage that was observed at the bottom joint of the right spillway wall.
