In each decade, Greenville has stepped ahead of other cities, acting boldly to reinvent and strengthen the downtown. This proactive approach has served the City well, making Greenville a model for other cities to emulate. As the City well realizes, the work of building and sustaining downtowns is an ongoing endeavor. In this light, the City of Greenville has undertaken this current master plan as a way to look forward and ensure the success of downtown for the next twenty years. The plan faces the realities of downtown today, building on its strengths and confronting issues Figure 1.1. The downtown Greenville Skyline. that must be addressed to move forward. The goals of this master plan are to: . Create a framework for future development downtown . Reinforce the role of downtown as an economic catalyst for the region . Leverage prior successes to move to the next level 4. Create a fully functional mixed use, sustainable, urban environment. Main Street is understood to be the center of downtown but the definition of the outer boundaries varies, especially as Main Street has been extended (Figure .). For the purposes of this study, the downtown area is defined by the Stone Avenue corridor on the north, the Butler Street Corridor on the west, the Church Street corridor on the east and University Ridge and the Stadium on the south.

    A WATER QUALITY TRADING FRAMEWORK FOR THE REEDY RIVER Gregory Michael Mikota II AUTHORS: Reedy River Watershed Policy Director Strom Thurmond Institute of Government & Public Affairs Perimeter Road Clemson, SC 29634-0125 REFERENCE: Proceedings of the 2008 South Carolina Water Resources Conference, held October 14-15, 2008, at the Charleston Area Event Center Abstract. The Reedy River flows through a relatively quality trading can provide greater flexibility and the small watershed that is rapidly experiencing growth. The potential to achieve levels of environmental benefits that watershed is approximately 167,000 acres, but the upper would not otherwise be attained under a traditional portions of the river include the urban areas of the City of command and control approach.

The Clean Water Act (CWA) of 1972 requires that each state set water quality standards for all contaminants in surface waters. These standards are typically based on criteria recommended by the US Environmental In South Carolina, the SCDHEC Protection Agency (USEPA). The CWA also regulates the discharge of is responsible for monitoring pollutants into our state’s waters. In South Carolina, the USEPA has and regulating water quality delegated the responsibility of monitoring and regulating water quality for the USEPA. to the Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC). Many factors can affect water quality, including pesticides, heavy metals, livestock waste, litter, oils and grease, and other chemicals. Water from rain and runoff collect these pollutants and carry them into creeks and rivers. Natural resources and processes can also affect water quality. The amount of tree cover over streams and rivers can affect the temperature of the water, thereby affecting the habitat for other plants, fish, and insects. Additionally, sediment from erosion can wash downstream and impact the depth and important substrate within the stream.

  • Technical Memorandum
    Technical Memorandum To: South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (DNR) South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) From: CDM Smith Date: January 2015 Subject: Methodology for Unimpaired Flow Development Saluda River Basin, South Carolina (Prepared as part of the South Carolina Surface Water Quantity Modeling Program) 1.0 Background and Objectives for Unimpaired Flows Unimpaired Flow (UIF) describes the natural hydrology of a river basin. UIFs quantify streamflows throughout a river basin in the absence of human intervention in the river channel, such as storage, withdrawals, discharges, and return flows. From this basis, modeling and decision making can be compared with pristine conditions. This memorandum explains the methods that will be employed to develop UIFs for South Carolina’s Saluda River basin. It describes data needs, methods for filling data gaps, and issues specific to the Saluda River basin. Once developed, UIFs will be input to the Simplified Water Allocation Model (SWAM) to evaluate surface water hydrology and operations throughout the basin. The UIFs for the Saluda Basin will extend from 1925-2013. UIFs will serve two purposes: ° UIFs will be the fundamental input to the model at headwater nodes and tributary nodes upstream of historic management activity, representing naturally occurring water in the riverways. Current and future management practices such as storage, withdrawals, and discharges will be superimposed on the UIFs. ° UIFs will provide a comparative basis for model results. The impacts of current and future management practices on flow throughout the river network can be compared to the natural conditions represented by the UIFs, and decisions about relative impacts can be well informed.

Bill opened the meeting and introduced Jim Devereaux who would be presenting at the meeting (presentation available at http://www.saludahydrorelicense.com/documents/SafetyRCG4-9-08.pdf ). Bill explained that Jim D has been working on the siren system and seeking advice from Karen Kustafik for the locations of the proposed sirens. It was noted that the purpose of the presentation would be to describe the existing and future warning system. Jim D. began the presentation and explained the background behind the warning system. He noted that in order to warn against rising water levels, there was a warning system that consisted of sirens, strobe lights, and a combination of the two. Jim D. also explained that the output level of the sirens was 12 decibels over ambient sound (routine background noise, including minimum flows) and sound levels were adjusted by direct measurement at each siren location.

Boozer, Chief Bureau of Water South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control 2600 Bull Street Columbia, South Carolina 29201-1708 SUBJECT: Intention to Delist Pollutants from 2000 § 303(d) List Dear Mr. Boozer: This is to acknowledge receipt of your December 17, 2001 request that the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) review proposed § 303(d) list modifications that are intended by the State of South Carolina. EPA Region 4 has completed its review of the provided information and offers the following findings of its review. As you are aware, 40 Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.) § 130.7(b)(1) requires the State to identify water quality limited segments still requiring total maximum daily loads (TMDLs), i.e., the § 303(d) list. Title 40 C.F.R. § 130.7(b)(4) requires the identification of pollutants causing or expected to cause violations of the applicable water quality standards. Title 40 C.F.R. § 130.7(b)(6)(iv) allows the State to not include a water on the § 303(d) list if good cause for that decision can be demonstrated. Good cause includes, but is not limited to, more recent or accurate data; more sophisticated water quality modeling; flaws in the original analysis that led to the water being listed; or changes in conditions, e.g., new control equipment or elimination of discharges.
