National Program for Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. Colchester Pond Dam (VT 00056) Richelieu River Basin, Colchester, Vermont. Phase I Inspection Report.

Abstract

The dam is a reinforced concrete gravity structure about 40 ft. long and 25 ft. high. The dam is considered to be in good condition. No evidence of structural instability was observed, but a slight steep was noted at the ledge contact of the right abutment, which, if allowed to persist, could eventually become great enough to erode the adjacent concrete. It is intermediate in size with a significant hazard potential. (Author)
