National Dam Inspection Program (NDI ID Number PA-00893, DER ID Number 66-35), Winola Mill Pond Dam, Susquehanna River Basin, Tributary to Beaver Creek, Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Based on visual inspection, available records, calculations and past operational performance, and according to criteria established for these studies, Winola Mill Pond Dam is judged to be unsafe, nonemergency, because the spillway capacity is rated as seriously inadequate. The existing walls of the...
