South Carolina One-Stop Permitting
Environmental issues in South Carolina are administered by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC), which works cooperatively with businesses to foster economic and environmental excellence.The cooperation between SCDHEC and South Carolina industry is demonstrated by the fact that less than one percent of all environmental permits are contested. The agency oversees all state and federal permits issued for South Carolina. This not only enables businesses to work with local agents on most environmental issues, but also ensures the convenience and cost-effectiveness of one-stop permitting.
