Abstract
The South Carolina Department of Environmental Services (SCDES) sought an inaugural statewide waste characterization study to identify recyclables and to gain a clear understanding of the composition of its statewide solid waste stream, including municipal solid waste (MSW) and construction and demolition (C&D) debris. This resulting study, funded by a grant from the US Environmental Protection Agency, is a methodologically defensible and repeatable characterization of South Carolina’s waste. The results herein will serve as the foundation for future waste planning activities and inform the State’s 2026 Solid Waste Management Plan.
