National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. Moulsons Pond Dam (CT 00420), Connecticut River Basin, Lyme, Connecticut. Phase I Inspection Report.

Abstract

Moulsons Pond Dam is a stone masonry dam approximately 80 feet long and 23 feet high. The spillway is L shaped with a concrete cap that extends almost the total length of the dam. A bridge spans over the river immediately downstream of the spillway. The top of road is the dam crest and the west bridge abutment is the west spillway abutment. There is a 2-foot high concrete abutment at the east end that is 8 feet below the top of the dam. At the west end of the dam there is a 6-foot diameter pipe that passes beneath the roadway into a sluiceway that goes to an old mill. There is no control for this sluiceway which is always open and the water discharges into the downstream channel. There is no low-level discharge pipe.
