Welcome to Little River — A Historic Fishing Village
Little River is a charming fishing village at the northern tip of Horry County, right on the South Carolina-North Carolina border. The town is famous for its Blue Crab Festival, fresh seafood waterfront restaurants, and deep-sea fishing charters that depart from the Little River waterfront daily. Despite growth from nearby North Myrtle Beach, Little River has maintained its fishing village character and remains one of the Grand Strand's most authentic communities.

SCDES Septic Permit Requirements for Horry County
Horry County septic permits are issued by SCDES under Regulation 61-56, with the local office reachable at (843) 915-8801. Due to the county's high water table and coastal location, many sites require alternative system designs such as mound systems (System Standard 420/421) or elevated infiltration systems (System Standard 601). Standard setbacks apply: 75 feet from private wells, 100 feet from public wells, 75 feet from surface water and tidal critical area lines, and 5 feet from property lines. The $150 site evaluation fee is required with the permit application.

Horry County Rivers, Watersheds, and Flood Zones
Horry County is shaped by three major waterways: the Waccamaw River, the Pee Dee River along its western border, and the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway running parallel to the coast. Hurricane Florence in 2018 pushed the Waccamaw to a record crest over 21 feet at Conway, and the 35,000-acre Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge stored an estimated 98 billion gallons of floodwater during that event. Large portions of the county are designated FEMA flood zones, and properties anywhere near these waterways require careful site evaluation before septic system permitting.

Horry County Soil Types and Septic Performance
Horry County sits entirely within the Lower Coastal Plain and has soils ranging from excessively drained fine sands on higher ground to very poorly drained sandy loams and loamy sands in its many low-lying areas. Dominant soil series include Leon, Lynchburg, and Rutlege, many of which have severe limitations for septic use due to wetness and slow percolation. Properties on better-drained upland ridges with Lakeland or Norfolk-type sands may support conventional drain fields, but a large percentage of the county requires alternative systems because of the flat terrain and saturated soils.
