The Carisbrooke Subdivision Dam in Greenville, South Carolina, is a private earth dam designed by the USDA NRCS and completed in 1958 for flood risk reduction. With a height of 31 feet and a length of 525 feet, the dam serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction and also offers recreational opportunities. Located on TR-BRUSHY CREEK, the dam has a storage capacity of 98 acre-feet and a surface area of 7 acres.
Although the dam is in fair condition and has a high hazard potential, it is inspected every two years by the SC DHEC to ensure its structural integrity and safety.

The surrounding area is at risk of inundation in the event of a breach, prompting the need for emergency action plans to be prepared and updated regularly. Overall, the Carisbrooke Subdivision Dam plays a crucial role in managing flood risks in the region while providing recreational benefits to the community.
