Circuit Court denied a group of river landowners an injunction to stop surface water withdrawals from the Edisto River. The ruling keeps the case alive as landowners challenge the Surface Water Withdrawal Act, arguing unconstitutionality while the regulator enforces the law. The dispute centers on water loss to other uses including industry and agriculture.
