Book Description
The dam is an earth fill approximately 580 feet long and 23 feet in height. It is one of two dams on the University of Missouri Franklin Horticultural Farm. The spillway consists of a channel excavated through the left abutment. It is lined with concrete rubble masonry with three concrete transverse sills. It has a bottom width of about 50 feet. Our inspection and evaluation indicates that the spillway does not meet the criteria set forth in the recommended guidelines for a small dam having a high hazard potential. The spillway will pass 25% of the Probable Maximum Flood without overtopping the dam. Other deficiencies noted during the inspection are erosion of the upstream face at two locations, trees and shrubs growing along the waterline, seepage along the downstream toe from the left end to the right abutment trough, inlet sill of spillway blocked by beaver dam, small trees and brush growing on reservoir side of inlet sill, and downstream channel from spillway is overgrown with trees and brush.

Book Description
This report was prepared under the National Program of Inspection of Non-Federal Dams. This report assesses the general condition of the dam with respect to safety, based on available data and on visual inspection, to determine if the dam poses hazards to human life or property. (Author).

Book Description
The purpose of the inspection was to make an assessment of the general condition of the dam with respect to safety, based upon available data and visual inspection, in order to determine if the dam poses hazards to human life or property. The inspection and evaluation, indicates that in consideration of the small volume of water impounded, the large floodplain downstream and the two houses downstream, 50% of the Probable Maximum Flood is the appropriate design flood. The spillway of this dam meets this criteria. The spillway will pass the 100-year event as well as 75% of the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping the dam. The Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) is defined as the flood that may be expected from the most severe combination of critical meteorologic and hydrologic conditions that are reasonably possible in the region. Seepage and stability analyses comparable to the requirements of the 'Recommended Guidelines for Safety Inspection of Dams' were not available, which is considered a deficiency. These analyses should be obtained in the future.

The inspection and evaluation indicates that the spillway does not meet the criteria set forth in the recommended guidelines for a small dam having a high hazard potential. Considering the number of residences in the downstream floodplain, the Probable Maximum Flood is the appropriate spillway design flood. The spillway will pass the 100-year flood (flood having a one percent chance of being exceeded in any year) without overtopping the dam. The spillway will pass 30% of the Probable Maximum Flood without overtopping the dam. The Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) is defined as the flood that may be expected from the most severe combination of critical meteorologic and hydrologic conditions that are reasonably possible in the region.

Book Description
The purpose of the inspection was to make an assessment of the general conditions of the dam with respect to safety, based upon available data visual inspection, in order to determine if the dam poses hazards to human life or property. The inspection and evaluation indicate that the spillways do not meet the minimum criteria set forth in the recommended guidelines for an intermediate dam having a high hazard potential. The Probable Maximum Flood is the appropriate spillway design flood. The spillway will pass the 100-year flood (a flood having a 1 percent probability of being exceeded in any year) without overtopping the dam. The spillways will pass 22 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood without overtopping the dam. The Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) is defined as the flood that may be expected from the most severe combination of critical meteorologic and hydrologic conditions that are reasonably possible in the region.
