  • Rule 391-3-6-.03. Water Use Classifications and Water Quality Standards
    Presented below are water quality standards that are in effect for Clean Water Act purposes. EPA is posting these standards as a convenience to users and has made a reasonable effort to assure their accuracy. Additionally, EPA has made a reasonable effort to identify parts of the standards that are not approved, disapproved, or are otherwise not in effect for Clean Water Act purposes. Rule 391-3-6-.03. Water Use Classifications and Water Quality Standards ( 1) Purpose. The establishment of water quality standards. (2) W ate r Quality Enhancement: (a) The purposes and intent of the State in establishing Water Quality Standards are to provide enhancement of water quality and prevention of pollution; to protect the public health or welfare in accordance with the public interest for drinking water supplies, conservation of fish, wildlife and other beneficial aquatic life, and agricultural, industrial, recreational, and other reasonable and necessary uses and to maintain and improve the biological integrity of the waters of the State. ( b) The following paragraphs describe the three tiers of the State's waters. (i) Tier 1 - Existing instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing uses shall be maintained and protected. (ii) Tier 2 - Where the quality of the waters exceed levels necessary to support propagation of fish, shellfish, and wildlife and recreation in and on the water, that quality shall be maintained and protected unless the division finds, after full satisfaction of the intergovernmental coordination and public participation provisions of the division's continuing planning process, that allowing lower water quality is necessary to accommodate important economic or social development in the area in which the waters are located.

  • SSCA Presentation
    SSCA Presentation Wondering where you can go safely this winter without fearing countries closing borders ? Seven Seas Cruising Station Hosts (CSH) Stephen and Dawn Bell, are currently sailing the southeastern coast USA in their beloved catamaran, Pilar. Discover new opportunities in the sea islands and coastal towns of South Carolina and Georgia that offer beautiful waters, nature and marine creatures that you won’t find elsewhere. *This presentation is a guideline based on our experiences. We accept no responsibility for your use of this information. SC/GA Coastline Navigation Points • Strong Currents in the Inlets – 3 knots. • Middle Ground shallows are present in most inlets. • Tides – 4 - 6 ft. • Can easily go from inlet to inlet in a day. • Winds - General direction on the coastline runs about 210-220 degrees to the southwest, so keep that in mind when doing sail plan. So, a N-NW wind means great southerly cruising with little wind-wave effect since the wind is blowing from the shoreline. • Cruising coastwise at 6-10 miles offshore, far from Gulf Stream, can keep you in the lee of shore and reduce the wave effect of a strong N-NW wind. • Watch cold fronts as wind will likely clock around 360. • Freeze protection generally not necessary. Avg temps Upper SC - January lows in mid30s, highs in mid 50s. Lower GA - January lows mid 40s, highs in mid 60s. Unique Activities • Plantation tours – Rice, Tea, Tobacco, Sugar, Indigo, Cotton • Protected Wildlife Preserves and State Parks • Oyster Bed rejuvenation • Live Oaks with Spanish Moss • Marshes with Palmettos, Maritime Forests • Beaches and Tidal flats only at Low tide • Historic Sites and Hotels, Architecture & Culture • Low Key Low Country • Southern Food • Golden Isles, Uninhabited Sea Islands SC/GA Coastline Key Inlets South Carolina Georgia • New River Inlet – Myrtle Beach • Savannah River Inlet • Murrells Inlet • Wassaw Sound • Winyah Bay - Georgetown • Ossabaw Sound • Charleston Harbor • St.

The major towns in 2000 were Anderson (25,514), Greenwood (22,071), Easley (17,754), Clemson (11,939), Seneca (7,652), and Abbeville (5,840). The year 2005 per capita income for the subbasin counties ranged from $20,643 in McCormick County, which ranked 40th in the State, to $28,561 in Oconee County, which ranked ninth. All of the counties in the subbasin had 1999 median household incomes below the State average of $37,082. Abbeville and McCormick Counties had median household incomes more than $4,000 below the State average (South Carolina Budget and Control Board, 2005). During 2000, the counties of the subbasin had combined annual average employment of non- agricultural wage and salary workers of about 216,000. Labor distribution within the subbasin counties included management, professional, and technical services, 26 percent; production, transportation, and materials moving, 25 percent; sales and office, 22 percent; service, UPPER SAVANNAH RIVER SUBBASIN 14 percent; construction, extraction, and maintenance, 13 percent; and farming, fishing, and forestry, 1 percent. The Upper Savannah River subbasin is located in northwestern South Carolina and extends 140 miles In the sector of manufacturing and public utilities, the southeast from the North Carolina state line to the 1997 annual product value for the subbasin’s counties was Edgefield-Aiken county line.
