SWPF facility enters operations testing phase at SRS
Savannah River Site manager Jack Craig says SWPF testing will last about 30 months before Parsons conducts a year of operations under the current contract. The project will join the liquid waste management program as Savannah River Remediation continues oversight. Regalbuto reflects on the project’s evolution from research to operation and credits the team and construction manager Chuck Swain for the success.

I-520 flooding dispute linked to drainage changes in North Augusta
A lawsuit accuses the South Carolina DOT of inadequate drainage for the I-520 extension area near Ascauga Lake Road. Hydrology expert Ed Owens testifies the project had a negligible upstream flood impact, while residents report recurring overflows and runoff carrying debris. Property values suffer as development upstream may worsen flooding and future water park discharge concerns are raised.
