Did You Know? — Clarendon County

Clarendon County borders Lake Marion, the largest lake in South Carolina, covering over 110,000 acres with 511 miles of shoreline. Created as a New Deal project completed in 1941 for rural electrification, the lake is named for Revolutionary War hero Francis Marion. Ironically, Marion's own home at Pond Bluff was among the properties flooded when the lake was created. Today it's one of the top fishing destinations in the Southeast for crappie, bass, and catfish.

About Clarendon County — What Affects Your Septic System

Local Statistics

Clarendon County by the Numbers

Clarendon County has a population of approximately 31,000 residents and about 24,000 housing units across 607 square miles. The county has seen recent growth in housing units, up about 2% year over year, driven partly by Lake Marion waterfront development. Outside of Manning and Summerton, the majority of homes — an estimated 50-60% — use septic systems. Lot sizes near the lake tend to be half an acre to one acre, while inland rural lots are typically larger.

Soil Composition

Clarendon County Soil Types and Septic Performance

Clarendon County sits on the middle Coastal Plain and features predominantly sandy and loamy soils on its gently sloping uplands, with extensive swampland soils in the low-lying areas near Lake Marion and the Black River. The upland soils — primarily Norfolk, Goldsboro, and Lynchburg series sandy loams — offer moderate drainage and are generally suitable for conventional septic systems when properly sited. In the swamp and wetland areas that cover large portions of the county, organic muck soils and very poorly drained sands create severe limitations for septic installation and typically cannot support any type of on-site wastewater system.

SCDES Regulations

SCDES Septic Permit Requirements for Clarendon County

Clarendon County septic systems must be permitted through SCDES under Regulation 61-56. The county's low-lying Coastal Plain terrain features many poorly drained soils with seasonal high water tables, which often require alternative system designs such as mound systems (System Standard 420/421) or elevated infiltration systems (System Standard 601). Standard setbacks include 75 feet from private wells, 100 feet from public wells, 75 feet from Lake Marion and other water bodies, and 5 feet from property lines. The $150 site evaluation fee is required at permit application.

What People Are Saying

We had a nightmare scenario with our septic system backing up over the weekend. After frantically calling several companies and only getting voicemails, I was so relieved when SepticWorkz answered immediately. They were professional and calming on the phone and promised to have a technician out as soon as possible.
