Lake Florence Dam, located in Aiken, South Carolina, was completed in 1960 and stands at a height of 15 feet with a length of 800 feet. The primary purpose of this earth dam is for recreation, offering a surface area of 25 acres and a storage capacity of 200 acre-feet. However, recent inspections have deemed the dam to be in poor condition with a high hazard potential, highlighting the need for maintenance and potential risk management measures.

Managed by a private owner, Lake Florence Dam is regulated by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) and undergoes regular inspections. The dam is situated on Town Creek and has a spillway width of 0 feet, raising concerns about its ability to safely manage water discharge during heavy rainfall events. With a high hazard potential attributed to its condition, stakeholders and water resource enthusiasts should monitor updates on the dam's risk assessment and potential risk management measures to ensure the safety of the surrounding area and water resources.
