Hiers Pond Dam, also known as Landis Hiers Dam, is a private-owned structure located in Bamberg, South Carolina. Completed in 1958, this Earth-type dam stands at a height of 13 feet and stretches 260 feet in length. With a primary purpose of recreation, this dam on THREEMILE CREEK offers a serene environment for water resource and climate enthusiasts to enjoy. The dam has a storage capacity of 420 acre-feet, with a normal storage capacity of 140 acre-feet and a surface area of 50 acres.

Despite its low hazard potential and fair condition assessment, Hiers Pond Dam is regulated and inspected by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SC DHEC). The dam features an uncontrolled spillway type and has not undergone significant modifications since its completion. The last inspection conducted in August 2017 revealed a moderate risk level (3), prompting the need for ongoing risk management measures to ensure the safety and resilience of this recreational water infrastructure. Water resource and climate enthusiasts can appreciate the careful monitoring and maintenance efforts in place to safeguard the surrounding community and environment.
