RE: Sandy Plains Dam - Polk County
Dear Mrs. Cain:
The North Carolina Dam Safety Law of 1967 provides for the certification
and inspection of dams in the interest of public health, safety, and welfare, in
order to reduce the risk of failure of such dams; to prevent injuries to
persons, damage to property; and to insure the maintenance of stream flows.
On November 29, 1990, the referenced dam was visually- inspected by
personnel of this office. The inspection was made under jurisdiction of the Dam
Safety Law which requires owners of dams under its jurisdiction to maintain such
dams in a safe operating condition.
A problem concerning the condition of the dam exists and must be corrected.
This problem is: the recent modifications to this dam were made without prior
plan approval by this agency as required by the Dam Safety Law.
In order to ensure the safety of the dam, we request that you retain, by
January 30, 1991, the services of a qualified, registered engineer or
engineering firm to prepare and submit a plan for the recent modifications.
Plans, specifications, and design calculations bearing the seal of the
responsible engineer must be filed with the Division of Land Resources for
approval pursuant to Title 15, Subchapters 2K of the North Carolina
Administrative Code.
Please advise me of your intended action in this matter. If I do not
receive notification on or before January 11, 1991, of your intent to
voluntarily undertake the action requested in this letter, I shall present the

An Investigation and Report
of Lake Sandy Plains, p?? t2?4
Polk County, North Carolina P f-C,
Purpose"of the Report - This report was prepare n the request of the
Owner's agent, Mr. James Martin, P. 0. Box 79 , Columbus, N.C. 28722, acting
on behalf of his mother-in-law, Mrs. Inez R.'Cain, who is the Owner of the
dam and lake. Mrs. Cain received a letter of December 10, 1990, from
Richard A. Phillips, P.E., N. C. Department of Environment, Health, and
Natural Resources, a copy of which is enclosed, requesting an investigation
and documentation of certain alterations performed on the dam by persons
without prior State approval as required by law. The report is to bear the
seal of a qualified registered engineer.
History - Lake Sandy Plains Dam was constructed by Mr. R. S. Cain (deceased)
of Spartanburg, S. C., in 1954-55, based on some guidance received from
U. S. Soil Conservation Service personnel but not constructed under their
direct supervision and control. (See letter of October 24, 1952, enclosed.)
Very little data and records of the actual construction are available or
clear enough to be accepted as factual. All available documents are
included in this report.
Since being constructed, the dam has not shown any evidence of failure
according to Mr. Martin. The embankment downstream toe has remained
relatively dry. The slopes have not sloughed nor has there been any flow
through the emergency spillway. Wave action on the upstream face of the
embankment has not been a problem.
Description of Recent Alterations
Recent construction work was performed on the site during 1990 by
Mr. Martin with the consent of the Owner in an effort to improve certain
unsightly deficiencies which had developed in recent years. Persons
performing the work were not acquainted with the State regulations requiring
permitting and prior approval before commencing the work. It appears to
the writer that probably none of the work on the dam spillways would have
been approved.
The 1990 construction work was done in an effort to correct the fol-
lowing problems:
1. The original pipe spillway riser and gate had deteriorated to
become nearly non-operable.
2. The embankment was overgrown with brush and trees.
3. Much of the lake shoreline was.overgrown and unsightly.
4. The emergency spillway contained brush and trees which would
impede the passage of flood water.
CIVIL 9 STRUCTURAL • ENVIRONMENTAL • PLANNING • STUDIES • REPORTS
Mr. Martin described the progress of the work to the writer as follows:
1. With some special effort the rusted metal draingate was opened
and the lake water was drained.
2. A new spillway consisting of twojZ•inch diameter P.V.C. pipes with
siphon devices on the upstream ends were installed at a higher
elevation and at a new location in the embankment. These spillway
pipes will not drain all of the permanent pool. They also do not
contain trash racks. They primarily function as "trickle tubes"
and provide what appears to be sufficient flow to normalize
base flow for the stream downstream from the dam.
3. The original spillway riser and gate were removed and the old
spillway upstream inlet was plugged with concrete which allowed
the lake to refill.
Refer to the drawings which show the present condition of the dam,
as described by Mr. Martin, for more details.

Investigation procedures included a topographic survey of three key
contours in the reservoir, a topographic survey of the embankment area,
cross sections of the embankment, and a survey along the centerline of
the embankment profile. The results of the survey are shown on the drawings.
Construction details of parts of the work covered by the permanent pool or
covered by the embankment are drawn from descriptions provided by Mr. Martin.
Some unevenness was noted along the centerline of the top of the dam.
The left side of the emergency spillway should be constructed to an elevation
at least equal to that of the top of the dam.
There is no drain for the permanent pool. If draining of the permanent
pool is attempted, it must be done by pumping. This would be difficult due
to the large volume of stored water (369 Ac. Ft.)
Dam Hazard Classification and Safety
If Sandy Plains Lake Dam is given a Class A Low Hazard designation (Small
Size), the minimum spillway design flood (SDF) is the 50-year storm event.

The principal spillway for passing this design volume is the existing
earth spillway on the left abutment o£ the embankment.
Using Soil Conservation Service Technical Release 55 (TR-55 Sec. Ed. 6-86)
methods and hydraulic design nomographs developed by S. C. S. for earth
spillways, the 50-year storm peak discharge requires a spillway having a
trapezoidal cross section with a 43-foot bottom width, 2 to 1 side slopes and
a depth at the control section of 3.7 feet. This depth will require raising
the top of dam elevation one (1) foot to 961.5.
If the emergency spillway is considered the principal spillway, additional
construction in the exit channel will be needed. This construction will pro-
vide for flow to extend to the downstream creek channel.
The existing reservoir contains 119 Ac, ft. of flood storage between the
permanent pool and top of the dam.

Mrs. Barbara Cain Martin
Post Office Box 791
Columbus, North Carolina 28722
Dear Mrs. Martin:
Through coordination with your consulting engineer, Mr. Hal L. Pridgeon,
we have learned of your plans to place approximately 0.2 acre of fill material
into the waters of Lake Sandy Plains and Collinsville Creek to repair and
rehabilitate an existing dam on property east of Columbus,,,cf County,, North
Carolina.
For the purposes of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program,
Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the
Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits (NWP).
Authorization, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899
and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided for the repair,
rehabilitation, or replacement of any previously authorized, currently
serviceable structure or fill; or of any currently serviceable structure or
fill constructed prior to the requirement for authorization, provided that the
structure or fill is not to be put to uses differing from those uses specified
or contemplated for it in the original permit or the most recently authorized
modification.
Your work is authorized by this NWP provided it is accomplished in strict
accordance with the enclosed conditions. This NWP-does not relieve you of the
responsibility to obtain any required State or-local approval. We note that a
401 Water Quality Certification for this work has been approved by the NC
Division of Environmental Management. The NC Wildlife Resources Commission
has reviewed this project for impacts to trout waters and does not object to
the_work as proposed. You should contact Mr. John Dorney, telephone (919)
733-1786, regarding water quality certification.
This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter
unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also,
this verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period,
the NWP authorization is reissued without modification or the activity
complies with any subsequent modification of the NWP authorization. If during
the 2 years, the NWP authorization expires or is suspended or revoked, or is
modified, such that the activity would no longer comply with the terms and
conditions of the NWP, activities which have commenced (i.e., are under
00-
-2-
construction) or are under contract to commence in reliance upon the NWP will
remain authorized provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the
date of the NWP's expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary
authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend, or
revoke the authorization.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Steven Lund, Asheville Field
Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone [phone].
