Located in Dillon, South Carolina, Beaverdam Lake Dam is a private structure primarily used for fish and wildlife pond purposes. Built in 1994, this earth dam stands at a height of 15 feet and spans 785 feet in length, with a storage capacity of 900 acre-feet. The dam, situated on Beaverdam Creek, also serves recreational purposes and covers a surface area of 85 acres.

While the dam has a low hazard potential, its condition assessment is rated as poor and it was last inspected in November 2017. Despite being state-regulated and inspected, the dam poses a moderate risk (level 3) according to the risk assessment. The dam lacks emergency action plans and inundation maps, highlighting the need for improved risk management measures to ensure the safety of the surrounding area in case of a potential breach. With its close proximity to the community and environmental significance in supporting fish and wildlife, understanding and addressing the dam's condition and risks are crucial for water resource and climate enthusiasts in the region.
