Stewarts Pond Dam, also known as Jack Stewart Pond Dam, is a privately owned structure located in Greenville, South Carolina.
Completed in 1970, this earth dam stands at a height of 21 feet and spans a length of 260 feet along the TR-Saluda River. With a primary purpose of recreation, the dam offers a serene surface area of 6 acres for water enthusiasts to enjoy.
Maintained by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control, Stewarts Pond Dam has been deemed to have a low hazard potential and fair condition assessment. The dam's normal storage capacity is 46 acre-feet, with a total maximum storage of 57 acre-feet. Despite its moderate risk level, the dam is regularly inspected every 5 years to ensure its structural integrity and safety for the surrounding community.
The dam's uncontrolled spillway type and lack of outlet gates suggest a simplistic design, yet its contribution to the recreational landscape of the area is undeniable. With its picturesque location and moderate risk level, Stewarts Pond Dam stands as both a functional water resource and a potential climate hotspot for enthusiasts seeking to explore the intersection of infrastructure and environmental stewardship in South Carolina.
