Endangered Catawba River Faces Drought Pressure
The Catawba River is labeled the most endangered nationwide by an environmental watchdog. South Carolina heads into a drought season with no rain forecast and all counties in drought status. Population growth in SC and NC counties drawing water for industry and households heightens demand for affordable, clean water. Lawmakers must act during a tight session to avoid overly low river limits, with room to loosen later if needed. The State editorial urges precaution and proactive water management.
