DOWNLOAD EBOOKLittle Creek Reservoir Dam is an earthfill embankment 67.0 feet high and approximately 1,900 feet long. The dam has a drop-inlet spillway consisting of a 13 foot by 18 foot concrete riser with a 6 foot diameter concrete outlet pipe. The dam, located near Toano, Virginia, is used for water supply by the City of Newport News, Virginia. The dam is owned by the City of Newport News, Virginia. Little Creek Reservoir Dam is an 'intermediate' size - 'significant' hazard structure as defined by the Recommended Guidelines for Safety Inspections of Dams. The dam and appurtenant structures were found to be generally in good overall condition. Visual inspection and office analyses indicate deficiencies requiring remedial treatment. A stability check is not required. Using the Corps of Engineers' screening criteria for initial review of spillway adequacy, the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) was selected as the spillway design flood (SDF) for Little Creek Reservoir Dam. The spillway is capable of passing up to 88 percent of the PMF without overtopping the dam. Despite the inability of the spillway to pass the SDF, the depth, duration, and rate of overtopping flows are not considered detrimental to the embankment.
