Camp Pee Dee Pond 2 Dam dam
Camp Pee Dee Pond 2 Dam
Camp Pee Dee Pond 2 Dam, located in Marlboro, South Carolina, was completed in 1959 and stands at a height of 16 feet with a length of 250 feet. This earth dam, primarily used for recreation, holds a storage capacity of 61 acre-feet and covers an area of 8 acres. The dam regulates the flow of TR-PHILS CREEK and is under the regulatory jurisdiction of the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC).
Despite being classified with a low hazard potential and fair condition assessment, the dam is subject to periodic inspections every five years, with the last assessment conducted in November 2017. The emergency action plan status and risk management measures for the dam are currently unspecified. The dam's risk assessment indicates a moderate risk level, highlighting the importance of ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure the safety and integrity of the structure.
Camp Pee Dee Pond 2 Dam, owned privately, serves as a vital resource for recreational activities in the area while also playing a crucial role in water management and control. With its historical significance and environmental impact, this dam stands as a testament to the intersection of human development and natural resources in the context of water resource and climate conservation efforts.

About Camp Pee Dee Pond 2 Dam
Where does the data for Camp Pee Dee Pond 2 Dam come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Low hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card below for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.

Condition Assessment
- Satisfactory
- No 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.
- 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.
- 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.
Hazard Potential Classification
- High
- Dams 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, environmental 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.
