Abstract
The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (Department) has been requested to designate the Trident Area, consisting of Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester Counties, as a Capacity Use Area. Comprehensive groundwater investigations in the Trident area have documented progressive water-level declines, salt-water intrusion, and an increasing demand on groundwater resources as a result of rapid industrial and commercial growth, particularly along Highways 52 and 17-A, between Charleston and Moncks Corner. This report investigates the conditions in the Trident area that warrant designation as a Capacity Use Area.
