National Dam Safety Program. Burton Duenke Number 2 Lake Dam (MO 31611), Osage - Gasconade River Basin, Camden County, Missouri. Phase I Inspection Report.

Abstract

The purpose of this inspection was to make an assessment of the general condition of the dam with respect to safety, based upon available data and visual inspection, in order to determine if the dam poses hazards to human life or property. The inspection and evaluation indicates that the spillway does not meet the criteria set forth in the guidelines for a dam having the above size and hazard potential. The spillway will pass 26 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping. The Probable Maximum Flood is defined as the flood discharge that may be expected from the most severe combination of critical meteorologic and hydrologic conditions that are reasonably possible in the region. The guidelines require that a dam of intermediate size with a high downstream hazard potential pass the PMF. The dam appears to be in good condition.
