East Village Cr Farm Pond dam
East Village Cr Farm Pond
East Village Cr Farm Pond in Oconee, South Carolina, is a privately owned Earth dam that serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock, and small fish pond. With a dam height of 48 feet and a storage capacity of 46 acre-feet, this pond covers a surface area of 3 acres and has a normal storage capacity of 32 acre-feet. The dam is classified as having a high hazard potential but is currently in fair condition as of the last inspection in October 2019.
Located along the TR-EAST VILLAGE CREEK, East Village Cr Farm Pond is regulated by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) and undergoes regular inspections and enforcement to ensure safety and compliance. Despite its hazard potential, the pond has not had any associated structures or modifications since its completion. The primary source agency for this pond is the state of South Carolina, and it is not under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Overall, East Village Cr Farm Pond stands as a vital resource in the region, providing essential services such as fire protection and water storage for agricultural use. With its strategic location and purposeful design, this pond serves as a valuable asset for the community while being closely monitored to ensure its safety and functionality for years to come.
Dam data reference
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.

About East Village Cr Farm Pond
Where does the data for East Village Cr Farm Pond 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 High 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 above 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.
