South Boundary trees symbolize Aiken tourism and history
Interim city manager Roger LeDuc touts South Boundary as Aiken’s tourism symbol with live oaks lining the avenue once planted by Henry Dibble, who shaped the carriage ride route and led the Bank of Western Carolina. Dibble fostered the oaks in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and many originals remain amid later plantings while the city preserves the scenic artery. Larry Wood, Aiken native and general assignment reporter, joined the Aiken Standard in September.

The
CAB demands accountability after exposure incidents at energy board meeting
CAB members pressed for stronger safeguards and accountability following exposure incidents. They debated inviting the Energy Department for updates or safety board members to testify as the committee prepared to vote on a recommendation. DOE spokesperson Jim Giusti noted ongoing replies to board letters and urged the board to speak directly on their views. The full CAB vote is set for today at the Snelling Center in Augusta from 8:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
