National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. Durepo Brook Dam (ME 00348) Saint John River Basin, Limestone, Maine. Phase I Inspection Report.

Abstract

The earthfill embankment is 2850 ft. long and 60 ft. high. The facility was found to be in good condition. In the embankment itself there were no dips, sags or other evidence of distress. It is intermediate in size with a high hazard potential. Remedial measures include monitoring the project during heavy rainfall, implementing a monthly visual inspection program, developing a downstream warning system and conducting bi-annual technical inspections.
