Discharges to Impaired Water Bodies:

Goal: To provide reasonable  assurance that discharges from the Berkeley County MS4 will not cause or contribute to violations of water quality standards and to control discharges of the pollutants of concern.

Berkeley County has collected information from SCDHEC on the location of impaired waters, as determined from results of the State’s monitoring program that could potentially be impacted by discharges from Berkeley County’s MS4. This information will be used to determine what types of water quality improvement measures should be taken. A monitoring plan will be developed and implemented to provide reasonable assurance that discharges from our MS4 will not cause or contribute to violations of water quality standards.
