Abstract
The purpose of this Groundwater Assessment Report (GAR) is to present the results of a targeted groundwater assessment conducted with respect to the performance of Onsite Wastewater Systems (OSWS) in the coastal region of South Carolina during spring 2005 – winter 2006. This study was conducted by North Wind, Inc. (formerly Pinnacle Consulting Group, Inc.) and General Engineering and Environmental, LLC, under contract to the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC), Bureau of Water (BOW), Non-Point Source Program (S.319). This work was performed under SCDHEC Contract Number J04-N058-MJ, and funded by S.319 resources. This GAR presents the results of work conducted at twenty (20) sites located in the lowcountry region of the state, all in Charleston County. These sites represent typical single-family OSWS settings, all located in sandy soils with shallow seasonal groundwater conditions. All of the OSWSs monitored in this study were properly permitted and constructed within the previous
roughly five to fifteen years in accordance with state regulations governing OSWS practice in South Carolina (SCDHEC R.61-56). Hence, these systems reflect typical OSWS practices employed under the local conditions.
