On March 11, 1958, an unarmed 7,600-pound Mark 6 atomic bomb accidentally fell from a U.S. Air Force B-47 bomber onto a farm in Florence County, creating a massive crater. Fortunately, the nuclear core was not installed. The incident remains one of the most dramatic "Broken Arrow" events in American military history, and the Mars Bluff crater is still visible today.

Florence County Water Table and Septic Considerations
Most upland areas in Florence County have a seasonal high water table between 3 and 5 feet below the surface, which generally meets the minimum separation requirements for conventional septic systems. Along the Great Pee Dee River floodplain and Jeffries Creek corridor, the water table can rise to within 6 to 18 inches of the surface during the wet season from December through April. Homeowners in these low-lying areas should expect that a soil classifier may recommend a mound system or low-pressure pipe system to ensure proper wastewater treatment above the saturated zone.

SCDES Septic Permit Requirements for Florence County
Florence County septic permits are administered by SCDES under Regulation 61-56, with the local office located in Florence at (843) 661-4825. The $150 site evaluation fee applies, and a soil evaluation determines whether a conventional trench system or an alternative system (such as a mound or chamber system) is required. Setback requirements include 75 feet from private wells, 100 feet from public wells, 75 feet from streams and ponds, 25 feet from drainage ditches, and 5 feet from property lines. All systems must maintain a 50% reserve repair area on the property.

Septic Tips for Johnsonville Homeowners
Johnsonville homeowners on sandy soils should be aware that fast-draining soil can sometimes mean your septic effluent isn't getting fully treated before reaching the groundwater. If you're on well water, this makes regular septic maintenance even more important. Have your system inspected every two years and consider a water quality test for your well annually to make sure everything is working as it should.
