Summary
Completed in 1957, this earth dam stands at a height of 21 feet and spans 675 feet in length. With a primary purpose of recreation, the dam holds a storage capacity of 54 acre-feet, providing a serene and picturesque setting for water resource and climate enthusiasts to enjoy.
Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's condition assessment is currently rated as poor, with the last inspection in October 2017 highlighting areas in need of improvement. The State of South Carolina regulates and inspects the dam, ensuring that it meets safety standards for the surrounding community. While the dam's condition may warrant attention, its location on TR-WHITES CREEK offers a unique opportunity for recreational activities and serves as a vital water resource for the area.
As a key feature in the Wilmington District, Pusser Pond Dam serves as a reminder of our responsibility to monitor and maintain our water infrastructure. Climate and water resource enthusiasts can appreciate the beauty and functionality of this structure while advocating for its continued upkeep to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all who visit.

Dam Data Reference
Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
