    4.3.2 Dam and Levee Failure

    Schuylkill County Hazard Mitigation Plan Month 2019 4.3.2 DAM AND LEVEE FAILURE PROFILE This section discusses both the dam and levee failure hazard in Schuylkill County. Dam Failure A dam is an artificial barrier that has the ability to store water, wastewater, or liquid-borne materials for many reasons (flood control, human water supply, irrigation, livestock water supply, energy generation, containment of mine tailings, recreation, or pollution control). Many dams fulfill a combination of these stated functions (Association of State Dam Safety Officials 2013). Man-made dams can be classified according to the type of construction material used, the methods used in construction, the slope or cross-section of the dam, the way the dam resists the forces of the water pressure behind it, the means used for controlling seepage, and, occasionally, the purpose of the dam. The materials used for construction of dams include earth, rock, tailings from mining or milling, concrete, masonry, steel, timber, miscellaneous materials (plastic or rubber), and any combination of these materials (Association of State Dam Safety Officials 2013). Dams typically fail when spillway capacity is inadequate and excess flow overtops the dam, or when internal erosion (piping) through the dam or foundation occurs. Complete failure occurs if internal erosion or overtopping results in a complete structural breach, releasing a high-velocity wall of debris-filled waters that rush downstream, damaging or destroying anything in its path (Federal Emergency Management Agency [FEMA] 2005). Dam failures can result from one or a combination of the following reasons: . Overtopping caused by floods that exceed the capacity of the dam .

  • Central Pennsylvania's Northern Tier the Wellsboro District

    Central Pennsylvania's Northern Tier the Wellsboro District

    Central Pennsylvania's Northern Tier The Wellsboro District The Genesee Conference was formed in 1810 by Bishops Asbury and McKendree in accordance with discretionary authority granted them by the 1808 General Conference. The conference was created from the Cayuga (western New York state) and Upper Canada (southern Ontario) districts of the New York Conference and the Susquehanna (north central Pennsylvania) district of the Philadelphia Conference. More specifically, the Susquehanna district included all Pennsylvania drained by the Susquehanna River above its junction with the Juniata River. The General Conference of 1820 transferred the Bald Eagle, Lycoming, Northumberland and Shamokin circuits to the Baltimore Conference. Peck's 1860 history of the Genesee Conference, page 339, describes that event as follows: The large tract extending from the mouth of the Juniata up to Wyoming on the north branch of the Susquehanna, and embracing Buffalo Valley, Penn's Valley, the Bald Eagle country, and the valley of the west branch, was taken from the Genesee Conference without its consent, and attached to the Baltimore Conference. We doubt if there has ever been such a case in the history of Methodism, and there certainly has been nothing like it since 1820. When large portions of annual conferences are detached it has always been done by the concurrence of the conference. It was a matter of no special importance at that time to the Genesee Conference, for she had territory enough, and too much. In addition to the territory now contained in five annual conferences, she had both provinces of Canada under her supervision, and little reason for instituting a quarrel about four circuits on her southern wing.

Class A Waters qualify for designation as High Quality Waters (HQ) under §§ 93.4b(a)(2)(ii). The changes provide the appropriate designated use to these streams to protect existing uses. These changes may, upon implementation, result in more stringent treatment requirements for new and/or expanded wastewater discharges to the streams in order to protect the existing and designated water uses.

  • Brook Trout Outcome Management Strategy

    Brook Trout Outcome Management Strategy

    Brook Trout Outcome Management Strategy Introduction Brook Trout symbolize healthy waters because they rely on clean, cold stream habitat and are sensitive to rising stream temperatures, thereby serving as an aquatic version of a “canary in a coal mine”. Brook Trout are also highly prized by recreational anglers and have been designated as the state fish in many eastern states. They are an essential part of the headwater stream ecosystem, an important part of the upper watershed’s natural heritage and a valuable recreational resource. Land trusts in West Virginia, New York and Virginia have found that the possibility of restoring Brook Trout to local streams can act as a motivator for private landowners to take conservation actions, whether it is installing a fence that will exclude livestock from a waterway or putting their land under a conservation easement. The decline of Brook Trout serves as a warning about the health of local waterways and the lands draining to them. More than a century of declining Brook Trout populations has led to lost economic revenue and recreational fishing opportunities in the Bay’s headwaters. Chesapeake Bay Management Strategy: Brook Trout March 16, 2015 - DRAFT I. Goal, Outcome and Baseline This management strategy identifies approaches for achieving the following goal and outcome: Vital Habitats Goal: Restore, enhance and protect a network of land and water habitats to support fish and wildlife, and to afford other public benefits, including water quality, recreational uses and scenic value across the watershed. Brook Trout Outcome: Restore and sustain naturally reproducing Brook Trout populations in Chesapeake Bay headwater streams, with an eight percent increase in occupied habitat by 2025.

    Addendum to the Catawissa Creek Restoration Plan

    Catawissa Creek Watershed Restoration Plan Update Addressing the TMDL Identification and Summary of Problem and Pollution Sources The Catawissa Creek watershed is a very rural, relatively remote, largely forested watershed, with little agricultural land. The only urbanized area is the Borough of Catawissa, at the mouth of Catawissa Creek. Ringtown Borough, in the upper Little Catawissa Creek watershed, is the only other incorporated municipality in the watershed. Several small villages are scattered through the watershed. Little new development exists in watershed except for Eagle Rock Resort, a development of mostly second and retirement homes in the upper Tomhicken Creek watershed. Farms consist of mostly pasture, with the few row crops planted mostly in corn. Impairment of Water Quality and Aquatic Life The major pollution source in the Catawissa Creek watershed is abandoned mine drainage from five deep mine tunnels located in the upper third of the watershed. A total of 44.5 miles of Catawissa Creek watershed, 11 miles of Tomhicken Creek, and 3.4 miles of Sugarloaf Creek are listed as impaired by metals from abandoned mine drainage on the DEP 303d list of impaired waters. The DEP North Central Regional Office completed the assessment of the entire Catawissa Creek watershed through the DEP Unassessed Waters Program in fall 2004. In addition to the areas already listed as impaired by abandoned mine drainage, several tributaries originating on Catawissa Mountain in the lower watershed were determined to be impaired by acid deposition and will be placed on the 303d list. This is not surprising since nearly the entire watershed is lowly buffered and slightly acidic.
