Inspection Summary
1. Overall Condition (*Per National Inventory of Dams Definition) Poor

----------------------------NID Definitions----------------------------
(SATISFACTORY) No existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are
recognized.
Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions in
accordance with
state engineer's rules and regulations for dams or tolerable risk guidelines.

(FAIR) No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal

loading
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 loading conditions, which

may
realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. A POOR condition is used
when
uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters, which identify a
potential dam
safety deficiency. Further investigations and studies are necessary.

(UNSATISFACTORY) A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires

immediate
or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.

(NOT RATED) This should only be used if it is not possible to assess to

dam’s
condition due to site constraints on visibility on the day of inspection. If
vegetation is a
problem the owner should be ordered perform maintenance to remove it
before the
next visit.

Inspection Summary
3. Final Comments
Engage a Professional Engineer to evaluate the jets in the outlet channel and the voids/cracks
within the spillway floors and walls.
Maintain wave-action erosion and run-off erosion along the upstream slope.
Maintain brush and woody vegetation less than 4 inches in diameter along the downstream slope
and downstream area.
Monitor the health of the trees greater than 4 inches in diameter until a Professional Engineer can
be engaged to develop a tree management plan.
Develop grass coverage or other form of erosion protection following deleterious vegetation
maintenance.
Maintain eroded path leading to the concrete channel spillway.
Monitor the wet area along the downstream area and for any seepage flow along the downstream
slope.
Recommend cutting large tree above the concrete spillway outlet to a stump to prevent potential
damage to the outlet structure.

Preliminary Dam Inspection Disclaimer:

The information contained in the preliminary inspection report is intended

as an aid to identify those dams that require maintenance and/or repair
actions to reduce their danger to human life or property only. It is not
intended as professional engineering or consulting advice for conditions or
situations present at individual dams. It is not a substitute for a detailed
inspection, nor does it replace the need for services provided by registered

consult with engineering professionals to find an appropriate remedy.
Preliminary inspections conducted by South Carolina Department of Health
and Environmental Control (the Department) are provided "AS IS" and "as
available", without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.
Preliminary inspections consist only of a visual but technical examination of
the dam and its appurtenant works. All findings are based solely on visual
observations of the inspector at the time of the inspection. Common law
holds that the storage of water is a hazardous activity and the Department
