Engleville Pond Dam, located in Engleville, New York, was completed in 1910 and serves as a crucial water supply source for the area.
Owned by the local government and regulated by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, this earth dam stands at 15 feet tall and spans 325 feet in length. With a storage capacity of 205 acre-feet and a surface area of 30 acres, the dam plays a vital role in managing water resources in the region through its controlled spillway and low hazard potential.
Despite its importance, Engleville Pond Dam is currently assessed as being in poor condition, with a very high risk level assigned to it. The last inspection in July 2015 highlighted the need for improvements to ensure the safety and longevity of the structure. With its outdated condition assessment from April 2016, the dam's risk management measures and emergency action plans are in need of revision to address the potential hazards associated with its current state. For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Engleville Pond Dam stands as a symbol of the ongoing challenges in balancing water supply needs with infrastructure maintenance and safety considerations.
