Dibbles Pond Dam, located in Aiken, South Carolina, is a private-owned structure that has been in place since 1987. The dam stands at 30 feet in height and extends 185 feet in length, serving a primary purpose of recreation. It holds a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet, with normal storage levels at 75 acre-feet and a surface area of 12 acres. The dam is situated on Cedar Creek and is regulated by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC), with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement in place.
Despite its low hazard potential, Dibbles Pond Dam is currently assessed as being in poor condition as of the last inspection conducted in August 2017. The dam's emergency action plan (EAP) status and risk assessment measures are currently unreported, suggesting potential gaps in emergency preparedness. While the dam does not have a spillway, outlet gates, or associated structures, its proximity to residential areas underscores the importance of maintaining its structural integrity and ensuring proper risk management measures are in place. Enthusiasts interested in water resource management and climate resilience may find value in monitoring Dibbles Pond Dam's condition and regulatory oversight to promote the safety and sustainability of this recreational water feature.
