Cuyahoga Valley prepares for floods

The Civilian Conservation Corp constructed the Kendall Lake boathouse during the Depression. Flood waters surrounded it in 2003.
This spillway is usually more than enough to handle the flow of water from Kendall Lake in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. That wasn’t the case in 2003, when flood waters overwhelmed the spillway and an adjacent emergency spillway.

Salt Run flows from the Virginia Kendall Lake dam. After 7.5 inches of rain fell in 24 hours in July 2003, water poured over the dam and surged downstream.
During normal weather, an emergency spillway at Kendall Lake dam looks like a small stream running through wooded landscape. During floods such as the park experienced in 2003, it raged downstream.
Flood waters in 2003 reached halfway up the archway of the converted bathhouse at Kendall Lake Dam.
Rob Bobel, an engineer for the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, will oversee the draining of the Kendall dam so the park system can shore up the emergency spillway to handle anticipated floods.
