"An expert with the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control Bureau of Water believes momentum gained in the Legislature led to a new sewage spill notification feature launching this month. Glenn Trofatter, director of the water pollution and control division, said the new online feature at scdhec.gov is just the beginning.
“It’s been up maybe a week or so,” Trofatter said Thursday. “It is new. It’s something that we said we’d get out, and that’s the first phase.”
The new online link lists wastewater spills by county throughout the state for six months, including the responsible utility, amount of wastewater spilled and, when available, the reason for the spill. The listing includes both municipal- and private-service providers."
