National Dam Safety Program. Sunrise Lake Dam (MO 31190), Mississippi - Kaskaskia - St. Louis Basin, Jefferson County, Missouri. Phase I Inspection Report.
Abstract
Sunrise Lake Dam was inspected. The overall condition of the dam appears to be fair; however, several deficiencies were noted by the inspection team. These deficiencies included: seepage under the spillway slab; cracks and spalling of the concrete in the spillway; the erosion of the banks of the discharge channel of the spillway; the erosion of the upstream slope due to wave action; several shallow surface sloughs observed on the embankment slopes; the presence of saplingss and brush on the embankment slopes and trees along the downstream, right abutment/embankment contact; a need for periodic maintenance of the grass cover; and a lack of a maintenance schedule. There exists a need for periodic inspection by a qualified engineer. The lack of seepage and stability analyses on record is also a deficiency that should be corrected.
