  • 03050201-010 (Lake Moultrie)
    03050201-010 (Lake Moultrie) General Description Watershed 03050201-010 is located in Berkeley County and consists primarily of Lake Moultrie and its tributaries. The watershed occupies 87,730 acres of the Lower Coastal Plain region of South Carolina. The predominant soil types consist of an association of the Yauhannah-Yemassee-Rains- Lynchburg series. The erodibility of the soil (K) averages 0.17 and the slope of the terrain averages 1%, with a range of 0-2%. Land use/land cover in the watershed includes: 64.4% water, 21.1% forested land, 5.4% forested wetland, 4.1% urban land, 3.1% scrub/shrub land, 1.4% agricultural land, and 0.5% barren land. Lake Moultrie was created by diverting the Santee River (Lake Marion) through a 7.5 mile Diversion Canal filling a levee-sided basin and impounding it with the Pinopolis Dam. South Carolina Public Service Authority (Santee Cooper) oversees the operation of Lake Moultrie, which is used for power generation, recreation, and water supply. The 4.5 mile Tail Race Canal connects Lake Moultrie with the Cooper River near the Town of Moncks Corner, and the Rediversion Canal connects Lake Moultrie with the lower Santee River. Duck Pond Creek enters the lake on its western shore. The Tail Race Canal accepts the drainage of California Branch and the Old Santee Canal. There are a total of 43.8 stream miles and 57,535.3 acres of lake waters in this watershed, all classified FW. Additional natural resources in the watershed include the Dennis Wildlife Center near the Town of Bonneau, Sandy Beach Water Fowl Area along the northern lakeshore, the Santee National Wildlife Refuge covering the lower half of the lake, and the Old Santee Canal State Park near Monks Corner.

The Columbia Canal, originally completed in 1824 to provide navigation past local rapids, was redesigned in 1891 to provide hydroelectric power to local industries. The red brick building in the center of the photograph was built in the 1890s and houses the pumps once used by the City of Columbia to supply water to its citizens. Although use of this pumping plant ended in the early 1970s, the canal still serves as a source of public-supply water and hydroelectric power for the City. Today, these buildings and the canal form part of Columbias Riverfront Park. (Photograph by Andrew Wachob, S.C. Department of Natural Resources.) SOUTH CAROLINA WATER PLAN Second Edition by A. W.

In 1999, median household income in the subbasin ranged from $37,810 in Charleston County to $43,316 in Dorchester County. Median household income in the three counties ranked between tenth and fourth in the State, well above the South Carolina average of $37,082 (South Carolina Budget and Control Board, 2005).

  • ASMFC River Herring Sustainable Fishing Plan for South Carolina
    ASMFC River Herring Sustainable Fishing Plan for South Carolina Introduction: The purpose of this sustainable fisheries management plan is to allow existing river herring fisheries that are productive and cause no threat to future stock production and recruitment to remain in place and close all others. Some excerpts from the stock status review for SC’s river herring were used in this document (ASMFC 2008). The review, which was prepared and submitted to the ASMFC shad and river herring board by SCDNR and the Stock Assessment Subcommittee (SASC), summarizes SC’s fisheries for river herring. Historically, river herring (blueback herring Alosa aestivalis) occurred in most of South Carolina’s major rivers (Figure 1). Commercial fisheries for blueback herring in South Carolina occur to a limited extent in open rivers such as Winyah Bay tributaries, but the majority of river fishing activity occurs in hydro-electric tailraces of the Santee-Cooper River system (Figure 2). It remains the most important and the most closely monitored fishery in the state. A brief history of the Santee-Cooper Complex is detailed in Appendix 1. Recreational fisheries for blueback herring exist, but only as a bycatch to the American shad fishery. Management of blueback herring in South Carolina is shared between the Marine Resources and Freshwater Divisions of the Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR). Management units are defined by stock and the complex of river(s) utilized. Management units include all rivers and tributaries within each area complex: Winyah Bay (Sampit, Lynches, Pee Dee, Bull Creek, Black, and Waccamaw Rivers) and the Santee-Cooper Rivers complex.

This 74 acre island is located immediately south of the western end of the Lake Marion-Lake Moultrie Diversion Canal. Planned development will in­ clude the construction of homes, a road system, recreation areas, a bridge to the mainland and dredging to facilitate boat traffic near the island. Development plans for this island were brought to the attention of the Institute of Archeology and Anthropology of the University of South Carolina by the South Carolina Department of Archives and History.
