1.1 Introduction/Background

The St. Johns River Water Management District maintains the Burrell Dam located on Haines Creek, 900 feet upstream of State Road 44, between Lake Eustis and Lake Griffin, at approximate GPS coordinates of latitude 28°52'17.33"N, longitude 81°46'59.98"W. This location is about 2.3 miles downstream of Lake Eustis and 4.2 miles upstream of Lake Griffin. The drainage area is 648 square miles.

Burrell Dam is an earth fill dam approximately 500 feet long and 12 feet high with a reinforced concrete outlet structure that is approximately 92-ft. wide x 94-ft. long. The structure consists of an intake forebay which discharges into an eight-cell concrete box culvert. The six inside culvert cells are 8-ft wide x 8.5 feet high and the two outside cells are 8-

ft. wide x 6-ft. high. The forebay contains four 14-ft. wide x 4-ft. high overflow weir gates that are adjustable between elevation 60.0 to 64.0 feet NGVD. There are two 14-ft. wide x 5-ft. high vertical lift slide gates located on each side of the forebay. The invert for the two slide gates is 56.0 feet NGVD.

The original Burrell Dam was built by Lake County in 1956 and turned over to Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) in 1964. A replacement dam was constructed in 1977 and has been owned and operated by the St.

Johns River Water Management District (District) ever since. This structure was designed to pass 2,350 cubic feet per second (cfs) with a headwater stage of 64.0 feet, NGVD. The structure is operated to maintain a desirable stage between 62.0-63.5 feet NGVD in Lake Eustis. Lakes Eustis, Harris, Dora, Carlton, and Beauclair are interconnected and are affected by the operation of Burrell Dam. Burrell Dam discharges can be affected by backwater from Lake Griffin.
