Barnetts Pond Dam, located in Sumter, South Carolina, was completed in 1955 and serves multiple purposes, including fire protection, stock, and recreation. This privately-owned earth dam stands at 16 feet tall and spans 585 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 93 acre-feet. The dam overlooks the TR-ROCKY BLUFF SWAMP and is regulated by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SC DHEC).
Despite being classified as a low hazard potential structure, Barnetts Pond Dam's condition assessment is rated as poor as of the last inspection in 2017. The dam's risk assessment is moderate, and it is subject to regular inspections every five years. While it does not have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place or updated emergency contacts, the dam's risk management measures and inundation maps are currently unlisted. The dam's poor condition and moderate risk call for careful monitoring and potential upgrades to ensure its safety and longevity for the surrounding community and environment.
