Lake Murray Backup Dam 300k 1

[@clockguy2]

My Dad was a civil engineer at SCE&G and he used to tell us that someone recalculated the 1000 year flood level for the area and it was about a foot over the top of the original dam. As a quick fix, they drove a steel cofferdam into the top between the original road and the water about 2 feet higher. I think some of it is still visible on the Irmo side around the park.

I worked on this project from 2004 until its completion in 2005. I have many photos of the different stages of completion.

[@SAXTProductions]

there is place on the dam that is anywhere near 2000 feet tall.

[@JohnFichtner]

2300 feet tall? I'm pretty sure that is not true. The narrator must have miss spoke. Lake Murray is only 360 feet deep.
