Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Owned High-hazard, Unsafe Dams Managed by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission High-Hazard, Unsafe Dam Revitalization Program Update As of April 30, 2012 The Fish & Boat Commission manages 18 dams that were, or currently are, considered as high-hazard, unsafe. High-hazard, unsafe dams have deficiencies of such a nature that if not corrected and the dams were to fail, substantial property damage and a probable loss of human life could occur. Original estimate of $86 million in funding was needed to address 18 dams. Criteria used to identify the highest priority dam repairs include the number of people impacted by any potential failure, cost of repairs, immediacy of needed repairs, contributions and funding commitments by local partners, economic impact of the dam structure, recreational fishing and boating opportunities, and other variables or identified benefits. Two (2) projects have been removed from high hazard, unsafe status; six (6) projects are 100% funded with construction activities underway; one (1) project is 100% funded with repair work expected to begin in early 2012; and two (2) projects are scheduled for design and repairs in 2013 and 2014 using PFBC forces and PFBC allocated GG2 Funds leaving seven (7) projects un-funded. Estimated $34.5 million still needed in construction funding to address seven (7) high –hazard, unsafe dams.
