Abstract

The Little Choconut Watershed Site 2C Dam is located off New Ireland Road in the Town of Maine. The dam is a floodwater retarding structure. Visual inspection of this dam revealed the following deficiencies: The 3-foot high crown vetch cover on all features of the dam and auxiliary spillway hindered a more thorough visual inspection; Erosion of the vegetative cover due to vehicular traffic on the top and upstream slope of the dam and in the channel and side slopes of the auxiliary spillway; A section of galvanized planking missing from the top of the inlet riser; Minor rust on the gate stem on the low-level outlet; A vandalized animal guard on the west outlet of the internal drainage system; and Wet areas along the toe of the west side slope of the auxiliary spillways.
