Coleman Pond Dam, located in Florence, South Carolina, is a privately owned earth dam completed in 1955 with a primary purpose of recreation. Standing at a height of 7 feet and stretching 650 feet in length, the dam holds a storage capacity of 54 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 24 acre-feet. Situated on the TR-BIG SWAMP river or stream, the dam has a low hazard potential and has not been rated for its condition assessment.
While Coleman Pond Dam is state-regulated and falls under the jurisdiction of the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC), it has not been federally funded, designed, or constructed. The dam has not undergone any modifications in recent years and has a recommended inspection frequency of every 5 years. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam does not have an emergency action plan (EAP) prepared, and there is no information available regarding its compliance with federal guidelines for emergency preparedness.
For water resource and climate enthusiasts, Coleman Pond Dam serves as a significant site for recreational activities in the area, offering a serene environment for fishing, boating, and wildlife observation. With its historical significance dating back to the 1950s, the dam continues to provide a valuable water resource for the local community while maintaining a low risk profile in terms of potential hazards.
