Huff Creek WCD Dam 2a, also known as Bracken-Coker, is a privately owned earth-type dam in Greenville, South Carolina, completed in 1962 by USDA NRCS. This dam serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction on TR-BAKER CREEK, with a height of 42 feet and a length of 950 feet. The dam has a storage capacity of 827 acre-feet, offering crucial flood protection for the surrounding area.

The dam is regulated by SC DHEC and undergoes regular inspections, with a hazard potential rated as high. Despite being assessed as in fair condition as of February 2021, the risk assessment indicates a moderate risk level. The dam is equipped with an uncontrolled spillway and outlet gates, ensuring proper water release during high water events. While the dam's structure and maintenance meet regulatory standards, ongoing risk management measures are essential to mitigate potential hazards and ensure the safety and effectiveness of this vital flood control infrastructure in Fork Shoals.

Overall, Huff Creek WCD Dam 2a plays a critical role in protecting the local community from flooding and managing water resources in the region. With a history of diligent maintenance and oversight, this dam continues to serve its purpose effectively. However, ongoing monitoring and risk assessment are necessary to address any potential vulnerabilities and ensure the long-term resilience of this essential water infrastructure in South Carolina.
