Watershed Maps, Yadkin Pee Dee and Santee River Basins APPENDIX N- Watershed Maps, Yadkin Pee Dee and Santee River Basins This appendix includes maps for each of the watersheds that traverse the three county Waccamaw region profiled in Chapter Three, Watershed Assessment. This set of watershed maps are derived from the Pee Dee River Basin Watershed Water Quality Assessment adopted in 2007 and the Santee River Basin Watershed Water Quality Assessment adopted in 2005 by SC DHEC. These are the most recent version of each respective watershed assessment, therefore each map is intended for reference purposes only. Reference information such as water monitoring station locations are subject to change depending on available funding, SC DHEC Ambient Surface Monitoring Program annual priorities, etc. Waccamaw Region Section 208 Water Quality Management Plan Page A67 This Page Has Been Left Blank Intentionally Waccamaw Region Section 208 Water Quality Management Plan Page A68 N or th SCG645018 * # C S 2 MD-162 C 6 a 2 G !( ts r ts S 6 2 o C 2 0 7 4 ts ts l 0 6 9 3 8 in 0 7 2 0 4 ts S 0 7 5 - r a C 4 6 0 8 5 3 ve ts ts * # * - - 7 0 # Ri ts G 1 - 3 5 6 MD-125 le ts 6 5 0 1 0 itt S 7 9 1 0 1 tsts L ts ts C 3 6 1 * 1 0 M M # G 1 2 342433-5201 7 5 7 ts ts L 3 7 2 ts ts it 0 - B!( tl 3 5 !( M ts H e 5 1 !( B!(Btsts M o R 1 !( !( M C D g i B!( I ve h -2 n r e 7 l !( r 6 e I !( B !( ry t n !( 2 le S 6 G t Little River/ C 1 r 1 o 1 0 0 v Horry y S S 7 0 0 e North Myrtle Beach a C C 8 2 4 rw G - 2 - I te 1 0 5 1 6 n a 4 0 7 1 5 0 le 0 2 3 2 0 t W ts 7 2 0 1 l -5 1 0 Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway/ ta 1 6 8 s oa 1 1 ac White Point tr 17 Swash In ¤£ tic North Inlet Watersheds lan Atlantic Beach At ts * # * 03 MD-091 # Singleton Swash M * # * MD-0# 85 Myrtle Beach ts (03040208-03, -04) Cane Patch Swash * # * MD-087 # AMB-015 SCG641012 M!( #* 26100 3-6001 Myrtle Beach B SC0047953 ts 0362-51 !( Withers Swash SC0002097 !( ts Myrtle Beach Midway Swash n 544 a ¬« e c O c ti 0 #* n a AMB-014 tl * Macroinvertebrate Stations Interstates A # * # Water Quality Monitoring Stations Railroad Lines ts Surfside Beach ts Approved TMDL Highways ¬«707 tsts ts ts *# Groundwater Monitoring Stations County Lines * ts# MD-277 tststststs st ts Shellfish Monitoring Stations Modeled Stream tsts ts * ts# tsts B Mines RT-01655 tsts ts Stream Lake ts Murrells Inlet M Landfills Brookgreen ts Wetland Bay/Estuary Gardens tsts !( NPDES Permits 10-Digit Hydrologic Units X Land Application Permits Cities/Towns M !m Natural Swimming Areas Public Lands ND0074616 X 222671-3001 ts tsts Georgetown X ND0074616 Midway Inlet tsts 222674-3001 ts tsM ts Pawleys Island Pawleys Inle ¤£17 ts t ND0065668 X 04 ts ts k C * # RT-01645 ts e ts u d ts i b e ts ts D ® tsts ts Miles ts North Inlet 0 1 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 Sampit River Watershed (03040207-01) Andrews £¤701 ¬«51 Mach in e 521 B £¤ H r y ill a r n C er c h h a C M n Stone Man.Co. a a M 222660-3001 n k S e 222732-3001 M e w P r amp o C ggy r r Bo t s !( SC0030732 Swamp B M Sp 222763-3001 ri n es SCG645013 g it h t B !( t W i B r r Georgetown o B G a g u C g r n y l e 1 e c 0 l k h 222679-3001 y 6 !( 1 SC0040029 - . 5 o 3 Georgetown B M * # 4 o C M n MD-075 2 Steel d Sampit P 2 * S # SC0000868 I 2 w p SC0001431 a Swamp R !( m m !( M M!( i * p a v # MD-073 w e S Sampit * Am.

    Natural vegetation of the Carolinas: Classification and Description of Plant Communities of the Lumber (Little Pee Dee) and Waccamaw Rivers A report prepared for the Ecosystem Enhancement Program, North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources in partial fulfillments of contract D07042. By M. Forbes Boyle, Robert K. Peet, Thomas R. Wentworth, Michael P. Schafale, and Michael Lee Carolina Vegetation Survey Curriculum in Ecology, CB#3275 University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, NC 27599‐3275 Version 1. May 19, 2009 1 INTRODUCTION The riverine and associated vegetation of the Waccamaw, Lumber, and Little Pee Rivers of North and South Carolina are ecologically significant and floristically unique components of the southeastern Atlantic Coastal Plain. Stretching from northern Scotland County, NC to western Brunswick County, NC, the Lumber and northern Waccamaw Rivers influence a vast amount of landscape in the southeastern corner of NC. Not far south across the interstate border, the Lumber River meets the Little Pee Dee River, influencing a large portion of western Horry County and southern Marion County, SC before flowing into the Great Pee Dee River. The Waccamaw River, an oddity among Atlantic Coastal Plain rivers in that its significant flow direction is southwest rather that southeast, influences a significant portion of the eastern Horry and eastern Georgetown Counties, SC before draining into Winyah Bay along with the Great Pee Dee and several other SC blackwater rivers. The Waccamaw River originates from Lake Waccamaw in Columbus County, NC and flows ~225 km parallel to the ocean before abrubtly turning southeast in Georgetown County, SC and dumping into Winyah Bay.

  • Chapter 8: Transportation - 1 Unincorporated Horry County
    INTRODUCTION Transportation plays a critical role in people’s daily routine and representation from each of the three counties, municipalities, addresses a minimum of a 20-year planning horizon and includes quality of life. It also plays a significant role in economic COAST RTA, SCDOT, and WRCOG. GSATS agencies analyze the both long- and short-range strategies and actions that lead to the development and public safety. Because transportation projects short- and long-range transportation needs of the region and offer development of an integrated, intermodal transportation system often involve local, state, and often federal coordination for a public forum for transportation decision making. that facilitates the efficient movement of people and goods. The funding, construction standards, and to meet regulatory Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) is a 5 year capital projects guidelines, projects are identified many years and sometimes plan adopted by the GSATS and by SCDOT. The local TIP also decades prior to the actual construction of a new facility or includes a 3 year estimate of transit capital and maintenance improvement. Coordinating transportation projects with future requirements. The projects within the TIP are derived from the MTP. growth is a necessity. The Waccamaw Regional Council of Governments (WRCOG) not The Transportation Element provides an analysis of transportation only assists in managing GSATS, but it also helps SCDOT with systems serving Horry County including existing roads, planned or transportation planning outside of the boundaries of the MPO for proposed major road improvements and new road construction, Horry, Georgetown, and Williamsburg counties. SCDOT partnered existing transit projects, existing and proposed bicycle and with WRCOG to develop the Rural Long-Range Transportation Plan pedestrian facilities.

  • Historic Rainfall and Record-Breaking Flooding from Hurricane Florence in the Pee Dee Watershed
    Journal of South Carolina Water Resources, Volume 6, Issue 1, Pages 28–35, 2019 Historic Rainfall and Record-Breaking Flooding from Hurricane Florence in the Pee Dee Watershed MELISSA GRIFFIN1, MARK MALSICK1, HOPE MIZZELL1, AND LEAH MOORE1 AUTHORS: 1SC State Climatology Office, SC Department of Natural Resources, 1000 Assembly Street Columbia, SC 29201 . KEYWORDS: Florence, flooding, average return intervals, rainfall, ARI . With the advancements of software packages and data visualization, much of the analysis and information on the impact and historical perspective of the rainfall from Tropical Storm Florence included in our online ERSI Story Map is not viable to translate into the print format standards required by many publications. However, with the newly enacted Journal of South Carolina Resources policy, our article creates a precedent in how the Journal will address submittals that include subject matter available on the internet, by permanently archiving the information, and applying a structured peer-review process to the content. Abstract. For the third time in four years, record-breaking flooding occurred in South Carolina. Hurricane Florence, which made landfall near Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, on September 14, 2018, moved slowly across South Carolina from September 14–17, 2018. Over those four days, heavy rain fell over portions of the Pee Dee Watershed and eastern North Carolina, with over 30 inches of rain measured by an observer in Swansboro, North Carolina. Most of the excessive rainfall was confined to the Pee Dee region, with reported totals of over 24 inches in Horry County, while closer to the Savannah River Valley observers measured less than an inch of rain.

    Little Pee Dee-Lumber Focus Area Conservation Plan South Carolina Department of Natural Resources February 2017 Little Pee Dee-Lumber Focus Area Conservation Plan Prepared by Lorianne Riggin and Bob Perry1, and Dr. Scott Howard2 February 2017 Acknowledgements The preparers thank the following South Carolina Department of Natural Resources staff for their special expertise and contributions toward the completion of this report: Heritage Trust data base manager Julie Holling; GIS applications manager Tyler Brown for mapping and listing of protected properties; archeologist Sean Taylor for information on cultural resources; fisheries biologists Kevin Kubach, Jason Marsik, and Robert Stroud for information regarding aquatic resources; hydrologist Andy Wachob for information on hydrologic resources; and wildlife biologists James Fowler, Dean Harrigal, Sam Stokes, Jr. and Amy Tegler for information regarding wildlife resources. 1 South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, Office of Environmental Programs. 2 South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, Geological Survey. i Little Pee Dee-Lumber Focus Area Conservation Plan The goal of this conservation plan is to provide science-based guidance for future decisions to protect natural resource, riparian corridors and traditional landscape uses such as fish and wildlife management, hunting, fishing, agriculture and forestry. Such planning is valuable in the context of protecting Waters of the United States in accordance with the Clean Water Act, particularly when the interests of economic development and protection of natural and cultural resources collide. Such planning is vital in the absence of specific watershed planning. As additional information is gathered by the focus area partners, and as further landscape-scale conservation goals are achieved, this plan will be updated accordingly.

  • Storm Tide Hindcasts for Hurricane Hugo: Into an Estuarine and Riverine System
    ADVANCES IN HYDRO-SCIENCE AND –ENGINEERING, VOLUME VI 1 STORM TIDE HINDCASTS FOR HURRICANE HUGO: INTO AN ESTUARINE AND RIVERINE SYSTEM Scott C. Hagen1, Daniel Dietsche2, and Yuji Funakoshi3 ABSTRACT This paper presents simulated storm tides from a hindcast of Hurricane Hugo (1989). Water surface elevations are obtained from computations performed with the hydrodynamic ADCIRC-2DDI numerical code. Four different two-dimensional finite element domains are developed in order to assess the surge-tide-streamflow interaction within an estuarine and riverine system. Two domains include inland topography, i.e., several observed inundated areas along the coast and relevant riverine floodplains. Results at three locations are presented; at Charleston harbor, where Hugo made landfall, Bulls Bay, where the highest water elevations were observed, and at the inlet of the Winyah Bay estuary, the mouth of the Waccamaw river. The simulated results show good agreement with the recorded storm data and the observed high water elevations. A slight phasing error is recognized. Our numerical results reveal that including inundated areas and floodplains in our finite element mesh is of vital importance in order to represent the storm tide response best along the coast reach of interest and within the Waccamaw riverine systems. 1. INTRODUCTION Hurricanes remain the single costliest and most devastating of all storms. Most of the catastrophe results from storm surge produced during these events. In recent years, the unprecedented destruction by several hurricanes along the South Carolina coast highlights the importance of developing a capability to model the interaction between storm surge, atmospheric tide, and streamflow. Advanced numerical models, like ADCIRC, are capable of enhancing the understanding of hydrodynamic behavior along coastal areas during such storm events.

  • Waccamaw River Blue Trail
    ABOUT THE WACCAMAW RIVER BLUE TRAIL The Waccamaw River Blue Trail extends the entire length of the river in North and South Carolina. Beginning near Lake Waccamaw, a permanently inundated Carolina Bay, the river meanders through the Waccamaw River Heritage Preserve, City of Conway, and Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge before merging with the Intracoastal Waterway where it passes historic rice fields, Brookgreen Gardens, Sandy Island, and ends at Winyah Bay near Georgetown. Over 140 miles of river invite the paddler to explore its unique natural, historical and cultural features. Its black waters, cypress swamps and tidal marshes are home to many rare species of plants and animals. The river is also steeped in history with Native American settlements, Civil War sites, rice and indigo plantations, which highlight the Gullah-Geechee culture, as well as many historic homes, churches, shops, and remnants of industries that were once served by steamships. To protect this important natural resource, American Rivers, Waccamaw RIVERKEEPER®, and many local partners worked together to establish the Waccamaw River Blue Trail, providing greater access to the river and its recreation opportunities. A Blue Trail is a river adopted by a local community that is dedicated to improving family-friendly recreation such as fishing, boating, and wildlife watching and to conserving riverside land and water resources. Just as hiking trails are designed to help people explore the land, Blue Trails help people discover their rivers. They help communities improve recreation and tourism, benefit local businesses and the economy, and protect river health for the benefit of people, wildlife, and future generations.
