PYMATUNING DAM REHABILITATION

The $10 million dam repair project included rehabilitating the gatehouse’s structural concrete, new trash racks and sluice gates at the gatehouse, stone masonry re-pointing and grouting, new gatehouse windows and roofing, new drainage inlets, structural concrete repairs to headwalls and spillway bridge, repaving the ¾-mile roadway and two walls that run across the top of the dam, outlet channel dredging and rip-rap placement, bituminous paving, and putting down new stamped reinforced concrete sidewalks in the area. We also repointed a mile of historic stone wall, installed a mile of curbing and paved the half-mile Dam Road.

Clearwater also installed new Piezometers, installed water control measures in the Shenango River at the site, and regraded the banks of both the dam and the river.
