This earth dam, with a height of 31 feet and a length of 355 feet, impounds the TR-REEDY RIVER, providing a storage capacity of 51 acre-feet. Despite its primary purpose of recreation, the dam has been classified as having a low hazard potential but a poor condition assessment.
Owned privately, Albert Taylor Pond Dam 2 is regulated by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) and undergoes regular inspections, with the last one conducted in May 2017. The dam's spillway type is uncontrolled, and its associated risk level is deemed moderate. With a risk management plan yet to be specified, the dam poses challenges in terms of its structural integrity and overall safety. Climate and water resource enthusiasts may find interest in monitoring the updates and potential mitigation efforts for this aging recreational dam.
