Broad Basin Planning

Activities and reports on water planning in the Broad River basin.

Overview

River basin planning activites in the Broad basin were recently initiated under the guidance of the South Carolina State Water Planning Framework. Two public meetings were held on November 8th in Columbia, SC and on November 9th in Spartanburg, SC to kick-off planning activities (presentations given at each meeting can be accessed on the meetings page). An overview of the South Carolina State Water Planning Framework was provided and applications to serve on the Broad River Basin Council were solicited. River Basin Council members were appointed by SCDNR in February 2022 (see the council page for a list of members). Formal Council meetings began in March 2022, and meeting agendas, presentations, recordings, and summaries can be accessed here. Please visit this website for periodic updates and new information regarding Broad River basin planning activities.

Public Notice: A public meeting (agenda) has been scheduled for February 20th, 2024, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM to present the final Broad River Basin Plan to stakeholders in the Broad River Basin.

The meeting will take place at the River Center at Saluda Shoals Park (5605 Bush River Rd., Columbia, SC 29212). The final basin plan is now available for review on the Broad River Basin Plan page.
