Bill Eyes Grand Jury Power to Probe Environmental Crimes
A South Carolina House subcommittee approved a bill granting the state grand jury authority to investigate environmental crimes. Business leaders argue it could hinder economic development and be abused, while DHEC officials cite delays under current procedures and seek broader investigative tools. The bill would let the grand jury compel testimony and subpoenas, adding to existing inquiries in drugs, public corruption, and securities fraud.

Sand deposits key to South Carolina coast tourism
Coastal researchers map erosion and sand sources along the South Carolina coast as renourishment keeps beaches attractive to visitors. Since 1994, funds from the USGS support the Coastal Erosion Study, with experts like Paul Gayes noting offshore sands are scarcer and renourishment must repeatedly reuse or relocate sand sources.
